Impact of Archiving a Workspace
When a workspace is archived it becomes frozen to preserve historical data. You can still view the workspace but you cannot edit the following data in the workspace:
- Workspace Status
- Tasks
- Workspace Profile
Note: Administrators can still edit workspace profiles in the Admin Zone.
- Native applications
- No native application items can be created, edited, or responded to.
- Documents cannot be checked in or out or commented on. New versions of documents cannot be uploaded.
- Discussions cannot be responded to and existing discussions cannot be edited or deleted.
- Polls cannot accept new votes.
- Dynamic applications (DA)
- No new workspace-level DAs can be created and the name fields for existing DAs can be changed.
- No DA items can be created, edited, or responded to.
- Workspace members cannot be added, edited, or removed.
Archiving a workspace has additional impact if it is a parent or child workspace:
- If the workspace is a child, information in the workspace is not available its parent workspace (workspaces above it in the workspace hierarchy).
- If the workspace is a parent, any of its active child workspaces (workspaces below
it in the hierarchy) are also archived.
Note: If you later restore the parent workspace, only those child workspaces archived as a result of archiving the parent are restored. Any previously archived children remain archived.
Additionally, archived workspaces no longer appear in the Portfolio tab:
- Information from archived workspaces does not appear in features like the Investment
Map, and the Scorecard.
- A parent workspace cannot access information about any archived child workspaces for the Investment Map and Scorecard views.
