Archive data manually
- Adriane Hunt
- Nathan Wallis
The Active Archive Queue window is where you select records to archive and you can view recently-archived records. This window displays when you log into the NPI client application and select the Archiving feature. There are search features to help you locate the record type and the individual records you want to archive. The record types you can archive are:
Batches
GRNs
Assemblies and processes
Receiving processes
(Rearchive) machine performance data
Important
To set up record types for automatic archiving, see Initial setup for archiving and Archive settings and scheduling options.
Log into the NPI client application.
Select System Configuration
> Archiving.
Under Select Items to Archive or Restore, select the button that corresponds to the type of record you want to archive.
Button | Description |
|---|---|
Archive Batches/GRNs | Select batches and GRNs to archive. |
Archive Assemblies and Processes | Select assemblies, assembly revisions, and process revisions to archive. |
Archive Receiving Processes | Select receiving processes to archive. |
Rearchive Machine Performance Data | Select previously-restored machine performance data to archive.
Note Machine performance data must initially be archived automatically, but if restored, you can then rearchive it manually using this option. |
A search and selection dialog displays. (The available search options will vary depending on the record type you select. For the following example, we selected Archive Assemblies and Processes.)
Enter the criteria to search for in the Search bar (for example, a batch name, assembly name, or a serial number).
Note
By default, the search will try to locate records by the name you enter in the Search bar.
Use the buttons at the top of the dialog to specify additional search criteria for the record you want to locate. (The buttons vary depending on the record type you select.)
Selected record type | Search criteria |

(Optional) Select the Text Options button on the right side of the dialog to display record names that Start With or End With the search text you enter or an Exact Search.
(Optional) When searching for batches/GRNs, select the Calendar button to the right of the search bar to filter the search results by batch Start Date and End Date.
When the search results display, select the check box next to each record you want to archive.
