Archive or delete a signup

See also:

If a signup date has passed or you want to cancel it, you can archive it to hide it from your active list or delete it to remove it completely.

You can archive any signup and restore it later if needed. You can only delete signups that have no payments. Deleted signups can’t be recovered.

Archive or delete a signup

  1. In Registrations, select Signups in the top navigation.

  2. Select the signup you want to archive or delete.

  3. Select the Actions button next to the signup's name.

  4. Select Archive event or Delete event in the dropdown.

  5. Depending on the selection in the previous step, select Archive or Delete in the popup.

Things to note about archived and deleted signups:

  • Archiving a signup removes it from being counted towards your Registrations plan level.

  • Registrations for archived signups will still show on the My registrations page on the attendee's and registration contact's Church Center profile.

  • Attendees are not automatically notified when a signup is archived or deleted. If you need to email them and refund their payments, you must do so manually. 

  • If payments are still due on an archived signup, registrants can make a payment from their profile on Church Center, or an admin can apply a payment to their registration.

  • Archiving a signup that is connected to Check-ins using the built-in Registrations integration will also archive that Check-Ins event.
