Note: this can only be done by a 'project admin' user from the creator's company.

If you've made a mistake after creating a Visi or no longer need them, you can archive it from the web app. Visibuild allows users who are project admins to archive an inspection template and ad-hoc Visis, however, Visis that are part of the original template cannot be archived.

If you have made and published changes to a template, and want to quickly archive and replace all unstarted Visis with the latest template revision, refer to our Bulk update Visis to the latest template revision article.

You can only archive Visis created by your company.


Single Archive

Once you've selected the Visi you would like to archive, by clicking into the relevnt Visi you should be directed into the Visi details page appear on the right. On the top right hand corner there should be a More actions dropdown button from that you can Select 'Archive'.

Bulk Archiving

To archive multiple Visis at once, dive to the specific location within your location tree and select multiple Visis by ticking the box sitting next to the Visi number. A model will then appear at the bottom of the page where you can then click on the 'More' button which is where you see the option to 'Archive' the selected Visis.

Accessing and Restoring Archived Visis

If you have accidentally archived Visis on your project that you need to recover, you can easily unarchive these using the 'Archived' filter on the location page!

Once you have found the Visi you need to restore, simply open it in full and you will see the 'Restore' button on the top right of your screen.
