Archive skills you are no longer using.

Before you start

Archiving a skill will also archive all sub-skills nested under it (if any). Archived skills will still show in your report, and no data will be deleted, but Administrators will not be able to apply this skill to users, and they will not be considered in matching.

  • Archiving a skill used in People Match boosts archives the boost as well.

  • When unarchiving any People  Match boosts, any skills referenced are also unarchived.

Child skills are also archived if the parent skill is archived

For example, if you have skills that have the below structure:

  • Lighting (parent)

    • Pendants (child)

    • Chandelier(child)

Deactivating Lighting also deactivates Pendants and Chandelier.
