# How to deactivate a report and/or bulk remove access rights to a report?

## The module 'Exports & Reports Administration' gives the option to deactivate a report and to remove the access rights to a report in bulk.

- If you do not have access rights to the Exports & Reports Administration module, contact your SyncForce Implementation Partner to make it available for you.
- If a report is not available in the Exports & Reports Administration module but it is available in the Exports & Reports module, contact your SyncForce Implementation Partner to make it available in the Exports & Reports Administration module as well.
- The ‘Exports & Reports Administration’ module shows all reports which are linked to this module. There are NO additional rights per user to check which reports to show.
- Deactivated reports are still available in the Exports & Reports module but it's no longer possible to request new reports. This is useful when the historic files need to stay available for the users. If that's not applicable, also remove the access to the report you're about to deactivate for the users as well. See this [topic](https://support.syncforce.com/knowledge/how-to-deactivate-a-report-and-bulk-remove-access-rights-to-a-report#removeusers).

### To deactivate a report

- Login to \[customer\].syncforce.com
- Go to the specific module on the landing page (for example 'Manage Product Portfolio')
- Go to the ‘Exports & Reports Administration’ module
- Go to the related report
- Deactivate
