3. What is archiving a task?

Please note: A task can only be archived once the completion date has passed. 

Archiving a task is used for: 

• When you have set a previous formative task and you want to set new questions. 
• If you want to remove an active task which has passed its due date. 
• To clear up the 'Manage Tasks' table.

Step 1: If a task has been set and is already active it can be removed through the ‘archive’ feature. To archive a task go to the ‘tasks’ menu through the sidebar and select ‘manage tasks’.

 

Step 2: From the manage tasks section, view ‘active’ tasks. The archive button can then be found under the ‘actions’ tab on the right hand side.

 

Step 3: Archived tasks can be later viewed through the status filter. Click on the filter and switch from ‘active’ tasks to ‘archived’.

Alternatively, to archive all tasks that have passed the completion date, please follow the steps below. 

Step 1: Go to the ‘tasks’ menu through the sidebar and select ‘manage tasks’.

Step 2: From the manage tasks section, view ‘active’ tasks.

Step 3: Click the tickbox located on the left-hand side of 'Course'. Ensure that all tasks have passed the completion date. 

Step 4: Select 'Archive Selected Tasks'.
