Expiring a User Account
You can specify a user account to expire on a specific date. Expired accounts are not deleted from EFT; they can be enabled at any time. An expired user account triggers the "User Disabled" Event Rule.
EFT executes cleanup procedures every day at 00:00:00 UTC and at Server Startup. This daily server cleanup removes/disables inactive administrators and user accounts and sends password reset and expiration notifications for every Site. All reminder e-mail messages are sent immediately after flagging the accounts to be reminded.
