How to Archive a Batch

1. To Archive a Batch, simply navigate to the batches section of a product profile.

2. Click into the batch as if you are going to edit any of the information within. You will notice at the bottom of the screen, that there is a blue tile for "Archive." By simply confirming the action in the next pop-up, the status of that batch will change from "Active" to "Archived."   

3. After you select "Archive" and confirm in the pop-up screen, your archived batch will now show the status is "Archived."
NOTE: The "Return to Vendor" option will be removed. 

How to Un-Archive a Batch

Once a batch has been archived, it can be reverted. Un-archive the batch by editing the batch and selecting "un-archive." This will allow you to reinstate the batch to make available for use.

NOTE: After "un-archive" is selected, the status will show "active" and the "Return to Vendor" option will be available again.
