Deactivate a location#
Deactivation keeps the location in your business while marking it inactive. It stops new use only: classes that already run at the location keep scheduling, extending, publishing, and moving their sessions there. An inactive location cannot be chosen for a new class, and an archived one cannot be used at all. If you try, Naayya names the location, says nothing was changed, and tells you what to do next, such as activating it in Locations settings.
- Go to Admin > Settings > Locations.
- Find the location and open its More actions menu.
- Select Deactivate.
To make it active again, open the menu and select Activate.
A room or other resource works the same way: classes that already use a deactivated room keep working, and the room is not offered for new classes or services.
Archive a location#
Archive a location when you want it out of booking and listing surfaces while keeping it in the system.
- Go to Admin > Settings > Locations.
- Find the location and open its More actions menu.
- Select Archive and confirm.
Archived locations appear under the Archived tab and are inactive. To restore one:
- Open the Archived tab and find the location.
- Open its menu.
- Select Restore.
Restoring leaves the location inactive. Select Activate when you are ready to use it again.
A device that served an archived location as a whole stays connected. Point of sale lists it under At places no longer in use until you move it to where it is used now, or disconnect it. See Edit, move or disconnect a device.
Archiving a location does not archive its entrances. Entrances keeps listing them under the location's name with (archived) after it, and you can still manage them and their devices.
