Blocked accounts removed from Microsoft Teams even though they're still in the O365 Group!
I don't suppose Microsoft is ever going to add a real field to AD/AzureAD that means "employee left company" are they? Continuing to build termination processes based off the "account disabled" event is a bit mind boggling. There are plenty of reasons to disable an account that have nothing to do with termination of employment, and some reasons to retain active enabled accounts after termination.
Automation can be awesome when the correct trigger starts it.
Well the messages are not the issue here, the fact that people get actually removed from the Team when the account is blocked is. It's a stupid design decision that needs to be finally addressed. And it's even more annoying because disabled users are still shown in some parts of Teams, you can search for them, etc.
- I'm inclined to agree with your thoughts on poor design. I think the inconsistency is also troubling. Why are they removed just from the Team experience but not the underlying group? The status messages are generally annoying but in this case it was extremely negative as team members thought someone had left the organisation - which was not the case at all. I struggle to believe this specific scenario is an intentional design. Either way, the verbose messaging in Teams significantly amplifies the issue.
Well I'll report it again, but doubt anything will change...
