Archiving products

Learn how to remove products from your lists and searches. 

If you wish to remove a product from all views and searches, the recommended approach is to archive it. Archiving a product will set the status of your product to Archived and will then remove it from your lists and searches. It is helpful for situations where you no longer actively make or sell a product but still want to keep historical data available but not visible.

Products can be archived as a bulk action on your products list page or individually on the product edit page.

We'll cover:

• How to archive products from the product list page
• How to archive a product from the product summary page
• How to unarchive a product

To archive a product from the Products list page:

1. Click the checkbox to the left of all products you wish to archive

2. From the Batch menu directly below the list, select Archived from the dropdown

   

3. Click the Update button to perform the action.

   
   

To archive a product from an individual product summary page:

1. Navigate to your products page by clicking on the Products tab.
2. Select the product that you wish to archive from the list.

3. Select Edit Product on the top right.

   

4. On the form that appears, scroll down to the Additional Details heading 

5. Find the dropdown labeled State and select Archived from the list

   

6. Click the Save Product button to confirm the changes.

When a product is archived, all data associated with the product will remain in place (i.e. orders, expenses, listings) and it will also still be factored into costings, reports and calculations.

Once archived, a product can be accessed via the Archived filter on your Product List page. It can be unarchived anytime by changing its status to either Draft or Active.

3. Select Edit Product on the top right.
