About Archiving a Menu

You can archive a "My Menu" menu (i.e., a menu owned by your account). When you archive a menu it is given a status of Archived and does not appear on the Menus Listing screen unless you are searching for archived menus using the Menu Status filter. An archived menu cannot be opened for viewing or editing. 

It is recommended to archive menus that are currently inactive. For example, if there is a special event menu used for a holiday once a year, then you can keep it archived until the appropriate time next year.

Archiving a Single "My Menu" Menu

To archive a single "My Menu" menu: 

  1. From the left navigation sidebar, select Menus & Recipes > Menu Listing. The Menus Listing screen appears, displaying menus owned by your account. 
     
  2. For the menu you want to archive, click its gear icon in the Actions column and select Archive.

  3. A confirmation message appears stating that the menu is archived, and the menu disappears from the Menus Listing screen. Note that if the menu had been active, it is now inactive.
