Deactivating Watch Lists

This section describes how to deactivate one or more watch lists in Active status.

Note:

• To deactivate a watch list all watch list members must be unlocked.
• If you add watch list members to the deactivated watch list, the watch list members are also deactivated.
• The Watch List Management Utility does not allow you to reactivate the deactivated watch lists. Therefore, you must perform the deactivation action carefully.

To deactivate watch lists:
