Archiving individual child records
To remove a child’s record from the cohort, for example if:
- it’s a duplicate record
- it was imported in error
- the child has moved out of the area or died
- Select Archive child record
- Select a reason for archiving this record, adding details if required
- Select Archive record
If you need to bring an archived record back into the cohort (for example, if a record was archived in error, or if the child moves back into the area), upload a cohort list again with a single row containing this child.
