5. Deactivate a user

A new function has been added to ensure the system handles the associated visit(s) for the Engineer before deactivating their account.
If the Engineer has any In-progress visits (Travelling, On site, Left site), a confirmation message asks the user to complete the visit before deactivating.

If the Engineer has any Pending Visits (Allocated, Deployed, Cancelled), the system will redirect the User to the Deactivate User wizard.
Here users can review the list of pending Visits and move them to an alternative engineer(s).
