You can deactivate a transaction processor that is no longer in use. If you have only one transaction processor, you must first add an additional transaction processor before you can deactivate the other processor.
After you deactivate a transaction processor, you can't use that processor to process transactions. You also can't add that processor to forms.
Step 1—Deactivate a Processor
Warning: After you deactivate a transaction processor, forms and autoprocessing payments do not automatically update. You must manually update existing forms and autoprocessing payments currently assigned to that processor.

Step 2—Update the Processor for Forms

Click OK until you are back to the main set of filters. The report results appear.
Next, update the processor for each transaction listed in the report:
From the report results, click a transaction to go to and edit the pledge or recurring donation schedule.
Change the processor to your current processor.
