Archive a worker
Archive a worker from the active register. There is no restore button in the profile.
Last updated · 10 November 2026
Archiving a worker removes them from the active register when they no longer work with you. You archive from the worker’s Details tab. It is available to roles with Workers delete access, subject to account hierarchy. You cannot archive the last active owner.

This is only the genuine archive confirmation. The typed word is empty, the action is disabled and Cancel leaves Jordan active.
Open the worker
Open the worker from the register and stay on the Details tab.
Select Archive worker
Select Archive worker at the bottom of the tab. A confirm dialog opens, warning “Once archived, a record is hidden everywhere and cannot be retrieved.”
Confirm
Type archive in the box to confirm, then select Archive worker. The button stays disabled until the word matches exactly.
The worker drops out of the register and can no longer be rostered, and the archive is logged on the Audit Trail.
Watch out
There is no restore or unarchive in the Workers module, and no way to permanently delete a worker here. Archiving is the only way to remove a worker, and it hides rather than deletes them, so archive only when you are sure.
The Workers profile has no restore button. A separately reviewed worker import can reactivate an archived worker by matching their email; that process retains history and sends a login invitation. Do not run an import just to experiment with restoring access.
Before confirming, check future shifts and arrange replacement coverage through Scheduling. A worker archive is not a shift cancellation or a financial correction. If you opened the wrong person, select Cancel. After confirmation, the worker disappears from the active register; if they remain, read the error before trying again.
