Raw Engineering Blog Manage data of leaving employees through automation

When an employee quits or moves to a different team, managing the user data-safely destructing unwanted data, backing up important data, and transferring the ownership of data to another team member-is one of the important (and mundane) tasks of the IT department. However, deactivating users from multiple apps and moving hundreds of records manually can take hours (or even days) of your time. While these tasks are important and should be handled with great care, they add to the company's cost and use manpower that can be otherwise put to better use. One of the best ways to handle this is to automate these tasks. With Built.io Flow, this is easy! There are several workflow templates that help you manage the data of your organization.
