A staff member finishes up and their email and passwords keep working for weeks.
What changes
Every account is switched off on their last day, and each one is confirmed closed. It switches off at 5pm, so they keep access for the whole day.

Built and run for a real business in my previous role: a missed step now shows up the same day instead of turning up weeks later as access that should have been switched off. See it working

Three ways to fix it
Start small and stop there, or go further. Each one works on its own.
Which fix suits you?
Does payroll or HR already hold each person’s finish date?
How many people touch this job?
Answer two questions and the route that suits you lights up.
Suits you bestQuick fix: automate it
One button on their last day
Good when: You want it fixed quickly for the next person who leaves.
Switches off email, logins and shared passwords on the day, then confirms each one is closed. The button is a short leaver form, including their last working day.

Triggered by payroll
Good when: Payroll always knows first.
When a finish date goes into payroll, access is switched off on that date without anyone needing to remember.
Usually takes2 to 3 weeks

Suits you bestDo it properly: build it
Part of the starter and leaver app
Good when: You also want new starters sorted.
The same app as new starters, so joining and leaving are handled and checked in one place.

Timeframes are a rough guide. You get one fixed quote before any work starts. What changes the price?
