Archiving and unarchiving a program

Roles and permissions

The following roles can archive and/or unarchive a program:

  • Administrators

  • Compliance managers with manager permissions for the program

  • Users with manager permissions for the program

Archiving a program removes it from view, but doesn’t completely remove it from Hyperproof. This is helpful should you need to access the program in the future.

How archiving a program works

Controls that are linked to another program are not archived and are still linked to the program. Additionally, only controls that you have permission to archive can be archived.

Archiving a program

  1. From the left menu, select Programs.

  2. Select the program you want to archive.

  3. Select the ... (More options) tab, and then click Archive program.
