What archiving means

Archiving is not deletion

An archived handover remains visible with its receipt and deadlines. File content may move to slower archive storage.

Separate from access

Recipient access can expire long before archiving. Archiving does not extend public access, and public access does not determine retention.

Conditions

• Handover completed.
• No request for missing information remains open.
• The required result has been returned and reviewed, where applicable.
• All active recipients have acknowledged receipt, where required.

Automatic deadline

By default, the active phase lasts 60 days from creation. When the conditions are met, the system can archive it; the team can also manually archive a completed handover.
