This article walks you through the steps of archiving and restoring an archived contractor from your account.
How to Archive a Contractor
To begin you'll locate the contractor you'd like to archive under the "Contractors" tab found under the "Send Payments" section. You can use the search box to locate the specific contractor you're after.
Open the contractor you'd like to archive by selecting them from the list on this page. Once you've selected the contractor click the "..." kebab menu icon in the top right and choose "archive contractor" from the dropdown.
Archiving a contractor effectively ends your active working relationship with them, meaning they will no longer be able to receive payments from you. However, the contractor will still have access to their Wingspan account, including all historical data such as past invoices and other relevant information.
How To Restore an Archived Contractor
Navigate to the "Contractors" tab found under the "Send Payments" section.
Click the "..." menu in the top right and select "View archived contractors"
Find the contractor you'd like to restore in the list on the new page, then click "..." next to their status and choose "restore contractor."
If a contractor is resuming work with you, you can restore their profile in the system. This will reactivate your working relationship and allow them to receive future payments from you.
