Archiving takes a program out of your working list without deleting anything. Use it for finished blocks, seasonal programs, and old templates you might want again next year.
Follow these steps
Open Programming.
Find the program you want to put away.
Choose Archive.
Finding an archived program
Open Programming.
Switch to the Archived view.
Open the program you're after, or restore it to bring it back to your main list.
Notes & best practices
Archiving isn't deleting. Everything in the program is kept, and you can bring it back at any time.
Clients already training on a program aren't affected by archiving it. Check who's assigned before you archive, so nobody is mid-block.
Archive at the end of each season rather than letting the list grow. A short Programming list is much faster to work in.
If you reuse a program each year, archive it rather than duplicating. Duplicates multiply and nobody knows which is current.
