To avoid issues detailed in my first post I was wondering what the difference between deleting a user and having them show up as “away” is.
Secondly, if companies are listing former employees as “away” are they still able to access personal boards if their personal email address is attached/linked to asana, but they would not be able to see company boards?
Hi @LisaMM11! These are two very different features
The show up as “away” is essentially an indication that you are on vacation, it indicates to other users that you might not be able to respond or complete a task until you’re back; and no worries, with this option, you will still be able to access your tasks when you come back from your holidays. Only users can enable this function from their account, you cannot do it on their behalf.
