MoversSuite Administration > Administration > Order Archive
Your company can archive orders based on criteria defined within this setup. An archived order is one that MoversSuite considers inactive and the Order Number is out of service, meaning that it can be assigned to another order.

Below are some of the features of archiving an order:
•Archiving an order resets both the Order Number and Estimate Number
•Order Numbers that are not in use can be un-archived
•Notes records document when an order is archived and un-archived

•Order Details shows the date the order was archived (as do the notes attached to the order)
•An Include Archived Orders flag is available in most Find dialogs. This flag allows you to include archived orders in your searches
•Orders with Recurring Billing records cannot be archived
•Revenue can be generated for archived orders
•Claims can be added to and processed under archived orders

Using the Order Archive Tool
MoversSuite Administration > Administration > Order Archive
The Order Archive tool allows administrators to search using one or more parameters to build a list of orders to archive or un-archive. Use the parameters described in the table below and press Search to build the list. All parameters work together to produce a list. If Search is pressed without entering any parameters, then all orders are returned and are available to archive.

We recommend archiving on a year-by-year basis. |
Once a list is generated, select the orders you want to archive individually or by pressing Select All to include all orders in the list and press Save to archive.
