Managing Your Company's User Seats¶
Every Planmaster subscription tier includes a specific quota of active user seats (for example, 10 active users on the Pro Plan):
- Each active team member consumes 1 seat.
- You can monitor seat usage anytime under Account > Company (e.g.,
3 / 10 Active users). - Offboarding Staff: When an employee leaves your company, find their name under Settings > Users and click Terminate employee. Their status changes from
ActivetoTerminated(use the Active / Terminated filter tabs to review either group). - Their login access is revoked immediately.
- Their seat is instantly freed up so you can onboard a replacement without paying extra.
- Data Preservation: All past Daily Progress Reports, task work logs, and comments submitted by that employee remain permanently saved with their name on them.
- Resetting a Password: Click Reset password next to their name to send them a fresh setup link.
