How to Inactivate a Synchronized Company

After you have synchronized a company record with UCMDB you can no longer delete the record. Instead, you can inactivate a company record, which causes the UCMDB system to cease all further CI updates for the company. Any existing CI data for the company remains in the UCMDB system associated with the inactive UCMDB Customer ID, but both the company and any associated CIs will no longer be visible from the UCMDB system.

To inactivate a synchronized company:

  1. Log in to Service Manager as a system administrator.
  2. Navigate to System Administration > Base System Configuration > Companies.
  3. Type the search criteria you want to use to find company records. For example, leave the search form blank to search all company records.
  4. Click Search.
  5. Select a company record to inactivate.
  6. Select No from Show Company in Multi-Company Lists.
  7. Click Save.
  8. If this company was previously synchronized with UCMDB, Service Manager prompts you to confirm the inactivation.
  9. Click Yes to confirm the inactivation or No to cancel your changes.
