How do I activate, deactivate, or delete an activity type?

If you don't want to use an activity type any more, you can change its status and deactivate it, or delete it. Similarly, if you've an existing deactivated activity type, you can activate it and start using it.

  1. Click Configuration.
  2. In the Resources, Activities, Inventories section, click Activity Types.
  3. Select the check box next to an activity type.
    Group action buttons such as activate and deactivate appear.
  4. Click the appropriate button, based on the action you want to perform.
    Note: Deactivate doesn't delete the activity type; it just makes it inactive. You can't delete an activity type that's in use (or, activities of this type exists).
