Keeping track of artwork status is crucial for maintaining an organized inventory. Artwork Archive provides a robust system for managing status updates, allowing you to quickly modify piece statuses, efficiently filter your collection, and track important transitions like sales or donations. This streamlined approach ensures your inventory remains accurate and professionally managed, freeing you to focus on your art or collection.
Updating a Piece's Status:
Click on Artwork in the left-side menu.
Select the artwork you want to update.
Under the artwork's image and details, find the Status drop-down menu.
Choose the appropriate status from the list.
Please note:
When you mark the status of a Piece as Donated, Sold, or Gifted, you will be redirected to where you can add the details of the donation or sale.

Archiving Artworks from the Pieces Page
Archiving is completely independent from the status field. You can archive any piece regardless of its status, and you can set any status for both archived and unarchived pieces.
This allows you to:
Keep records of these pieces without cluttering your active inventory
Effectively separate works that are no longer part of your current collection
Maintain a comprehensive artwork history while focusing on active pieces
To view or manage archived items, simply click on the Archived icon on your dashboard.
Bulk Archiving Multiple Pieces

Click the blue Archive Selected Pieces button.
You will then be taken back to your main Pieces page.
To view or manage archived items, simply click on the Archived icon on your dashboard.
