Over time, your consultant list can fill up with people who are no longer relevant. Wrong attributes, outdated entries, or consultants you simply don't work with anymore. Keeping that clutter around makes search results noisier, skews your KPIs, and slows down workforce decisions.
As a superuser, you can archive a consultant directly from the Consultant Card to keep your list clean, without losing any data.
How to archive a consultant
Open the Consultant Card
Open the quick menu ⋮ in the top-right of the card
Select Archive
The consultant and all of their assignments are archived together in one action.
What happens to archived consultants
They are removed from your active consultant list and search results
They are excluded from analytics and KPI counters
All their data, assignments, tenure and history is preserved exactly as it was
Archived consultants live on a dedicated Archived consultants page, where you can browse, search, and manage them. You find that list by clicking the ⋮ from the Consultant list page.
Restoring an archived consultant
You can restore an archived consultant at any time. Open the Archived consultants page, find the consultant, and choose Unarchive. Everything comes back exactly as it was before archiving.
If an archived consultant is signed on a new request, Fill restores them automaticall, so you never lose track of someone who comes back into active work.
Archiving individual assignments
You can also archive individual assignments separately including legacy assignments, signed candidates, and extensions without archiving the whole consultant. Use the assignment menu (⋮) on the Assignments section and select Archive.
It's recommended to archive consultants and assignments as soon as they become outdated, to keep your data clean for everyone in your organisation.
