disabled

Disabled is the status of an account that has been made inactive, so it cannot be used until it is enabled.

In plain English

This means the account has been turned off rather than left active. Because it is inactive, it cannot be used. It remains in that state until it is enabled again.

In context

Here, "disabled" communicates that the account is inactive and therefore not enabled for use.

Situation
SaaS sign-in, invitations, roles, permissions, and account status
What it communicates

Meaning limits

By itself, this term does not say why the account was made inactive or who can enable it.

Examples

“When Priya tried to use the account, she found it disabled and had to wait until it was enabled again.”

Core meaning

“The old account is disabled, while the replacement account is already active.”
