How do I remove/archive a client?

This article outlines how to remove/archive a client so they don't show in your client list.

When archiving a client, their information is not removed permanently from your Phorest system and can always be unarchived/restored. Archived clients will still appear in relevant client reports.

Archiving a Client

To archive a client, go to Clients Single-click on a client > Archive.
