Hi William,
It is enough disabling user from AD. After Disabling the user He/She will not be able to Log into CRM System. But here is a Catch If you don't disable the users from CRM they it will Continue to access "CAL" License which will cost your company. Instead if you disable the user You can use the Same CAL license for other user. and there will not be any extra cost.
But in CRM Online there is a synchonisation between o365 and CRM so if you disable from in O365 synchronisation will disable user from CRM

Thanks Karsten and Yawer.
But these best practice to disable in CRM and remove roles etc, wouldn't it show the lack of confidence on the CRM-AD security model?
You see, I have people insisting disabling in AD is not good enough. But just imagine the workload on user administrator if especially there is high volume of staff and turnover?
Disabling in AD and CRM should be enoungh, no need to delete teams and roles in my opinion.
Hello William.
The basic of the security model is the Active Directory. Wenn you diable the AD Account of one user, he has no longer the chance to get inside CRM. The AD is the main front for your CRM-Security.
If you want to play it safe it's a good thing to disable the user in CRM as well... and to delete all Teams and SecRoles related to the user.
Kind regards,
Karsten
Thanks for your response Yawer.
My environment is on-premise.
In my context, i wish to ascertain the security aspect of this user account on CRM in relation to disabling only at AD.
of course, it make sense to disable the users at CRM so i can release the license, but the question here is urgency in view of security.
"no", if a user account is disabled properly.
To disable a user account steps are different depending you are in CRM online or on premise.
