Administrators can archive opportunities they are managing at any time they choose. Archiving prevents any edits or changes from being made to the opportunity or the associated applications and reviews, but you will still have access to view the information from the Data Grid. 


The only exceptions are that Progress Reports (Post Award Reports) can still be filled out if awardees had been selected prior to the opportunity being archived. You can also assign pre-existing progress reports and schedule reminders.


Archived opportunities can also be copied, and reports can be extracted from the Data Grid or the Reports tab.


Please see article about re-opening an opportunity if you archived one by mistake.
