When you archive an item in Checkfront Classic Items, it’s hidden from your active inventory but not permanently deleted. Restoring an archived item returns it to your active inventory so you can continue managing it (e.g., for re-use, edits, or bookings).
You might restore an archived item if you bring back seasonal inventory, re-offer a discontinued product, or realize you archived something by mistake.
In this article, you’ll learn how to locate archived items, restore them using the default calendar status, and verify that the restored item is active again.
