Actions

The icons in the Actions column perform the following functions.

Icon	Action	Description
	Edit	To edit the category's name, click this icon.
	Deactivate	If the competency is active, this icon appears. To deactivate the competency, which removes it from being used by end users, click this icon. Historical instances of the category or competency are maintained on user profiles and in instances where it is used in an active appraisal. The only exception to future use of a deactivated competency category is if an appraisal is copied and it holds competencies from a deactivated category. Those competencies will still be copied along with the appraisal.
	Delete	To delete a competency category, click this icon. For those competency categories that have existing competencies, this icon is disabled. This option is also disabled for all default Competency Categories shipped with Talent Management. Administrators can deactivate any Competency Category, including default Categories, to remove it from the list of categories a user has available for selection.
