Note:
In the table each floor initially defaults to either Auto (Active), or Auto (Inactive):
- Auto (Active) - the floor level is an active stage because it contains at least one member, or has a member attached to it from below.
- Auto (Inactive) - the floor level is not an active stage because it doesn’t contain at least one member, or have a member attached to it from below.
- The auto defaults can be overridden by manually setting a level to be an active or an inactive stage.
In the table, set Active Stage at the level of the stage to be removed to Inactive.

The stage is removed and all entities at that level are moved to the next active stage.

Note: If required, you can also use the table to edit individual stage durations.
