Archiving allows you to hide records from default views. This allows you to de-clutter your active working space without deleting records. Archived records can be un-archived again to bring them to the foreground.
The following entities support archiving:
- Leads
- Deal Registrations
- MDF Requests
- Referrals
- Widget Articles
- Forum Threads and Categories
How do I archive and unarchive records?
You can archive and unarchive records by clicking the checkboxes next to the records that you want to archive or unarchive > Actions > Archive or Unarchive.

Once a record is archived, how can I view it?
You can view unarchived records by filtering records by the "Archived Status." You can add the Archived Status filter by clicking Add Filter > Archived Status.

Can Partner Users edit records that have been archived?
To prevent Partner and Distributor Users from making changes to archived Leads, Deals, and MDF Requests, go to Settings > Portal Configuration > General Portal Settings.
