You can archive a finished project in a business process. To do that, use the Archive activity. It is used in the preconfigured project archiving process in the Projects app. By default, this process is started when the user clicks the Finish button on a project page with the In progress status.
You can use the activity in a custom business process. For example, place it on the process flow chart after the task for the project manager to make a decision to archive the project.
Archive activity settings
- Create an App type variable in the process context and link it to the Projects app. In the process, the item of the Projects app that needs to be archived will be written to this variable.
- Drag the Archive activity to the process diagram and open the settings.
- On the General tab, select the variable you created.
- On the Description tab, enter service information about how the block works for employees who are designing the process.
If you want to make it possible to restore a project in the process, use the Restore from Archive activity.
