Catalog - Archiving and unarchiving a vendor

Note

This option pertains to the Hyperproof TPRM product line.

The archive vendor feature allows you to mark a vendor as archived by using the Archived tag. Archiving a vendor prevents any further modifications while keeping the vendor's data intact in the system. When you archive a vendor, the following occurs:

  • The vendor becomes read-only. Users can no longer update or modify any details for the vendor.

  • The search function doesn't display archived vendors. To find an archived vendor, search for the Archived tag.
