| Change to Inactive - Marks the Stakeholder as inactive and they will not be able to be linked to future interactions.

This will retain the history of the stakeholder and keep a record of their involvement within the project, including emails, meeting records, complaints etc. Change to Active - reactivates Stakeholder |
| Clone - Create a copy of the existing stakeholder record. To Save the copy, some details will need to be changed. |
Delete - Delete the record. Only available to certain User levels | |
Print – Prints a PDF report of the individual Stakeholder record | |
