What must be done to move a user account to a different plan?

To successfully move a user account to a different plan, it is essential to remove the user from the current plan. This process allows the user to transition to a new plan without retaining any associations with the previous plan.

Moving a user between plans typically involves managing their accessibility and permissions, so deregistering them from the existing plan is a necessary step. After this removal, the user can then be assigned to the new plan, ensuring that they have the appropriate access and functionalities related to the new plan's features.

While transferring owned items and notifying the user might be important steps in the overall change management process, they do not specifically address the technical requirement of changing a user’s plan. Deactivating a user may also imply an entirely different process and is not directly related to moving them between plans. Thus, the critical step is to first remove the user from their current plan to facilitate the transition to another plan smoothly.
