Overview

Follow these instructions to replace one User with another. For example, if a sales or marketing person leaves the organization you may need to remove or deactivate that person's User account in Salesforce.com and make equivalent updates in Lead Liaison. When creating a new User make sure to update all your business processes. In the instructions below we explain how to handle this same scenario.
