How to suspend access to CCH OneClick at client level, how to reinstate access, and how to delete a client's CCH OneClick account from CCH Central.

Suspend client access for CCH OneClick

You can suspend your client's access to CCH OneClick either temporarily, or permanently if you cease to act for the client.

Note If you want to use the 'Close Client' feature in CCH Central, you must suspend the client's CCH OneClick account first.

On the following screen, client Deborah Cookie is activated, and has  on a green target icon in the find clients screen:

Double-click the client name to open the client record.

Select the Main subtab, and check the OneClick status. It is currently activated.

When you click Yes, the OneClick account for this client is suspended, and no contacts for this client are able to log into the client workspace. You can no longer send any new messages or documents to this client.

The OneClick status for the client record is now 'Suspended'.

And the OneClick section of the ribbon has also changed.


The 'Suspend OneClick Account' icon is greyed out and 2 additional icons are active: 'Reactivate OneClick Account' and 'Delete OneClick Account':

Delete a client's CCH OneClick account

Take Care! When you delete a client's CCH OneClick account all their message and document history is deleted from the 'Message Centre' tab, and there is no undo process for this. (If you have the CCH Document Management product, a copy of all messages and documents is saved in the client's 'Document Centre' and these are not deleted by this process).

You can delete a client's CCH OneClick account only if the account is first suspended (see above).

Check that the client's status is suspended

You will get this message:
