This article describes how an operator deactivates an active virtual smart card for a user in Smart ID Identity Manager. The Deactivate virtual smart card use case is called automatically if a user gets deactivated, reactivated or locked. See, for example, Deactivate user. But it can be also used to just set the virtual smart card to inactive.

This use case is disabled by default. To enable it, see Enable the Deactivate virtual smart card use case.
