# Make a Site Inactive

Making a site Inactive removes it from Active use while preserving its data for potential future reactivation.

Setting a site to **Inactive** prevents it from being used for future scheduling while preserving all historical data and records. This is useful when a site is no longer operational, temporarily unavailable, or should no longer appear in scheduling workflows.

Unlike deleting a site, setting it to **Inactive** maintains data integrity and allows the site to be reactivated at any time.

## Set a Site to Inactive

Setting a site to **Inactive** removes it from the schedule and prevents it from being selected when creating new shifts.

To deactivate a site:

1.  Open the site you want to deactivate.
2.  Click **Edit Site**.
3.  In the **General Info** section, change the **Site Status** to **Inactive**.
4.  Click **Save**.

All historical shifts and site records will remain available for reporting and reference purposes.
