- Tracking phased work with clients where implementation cycles go through various stages (sections) that become active/inactive throughout each phased implementation. Archiving sections that are inactive yet retaining work completed within
- Sales pipeline tracking where sections are defined by territories so custom fields can be used as secondary filter or sort.
- Offer tracking where sections define the types of offers, tasks are the client opportunities per offer and custom fields provide the detail/flavor to the offers. Where some offers are seasonal, on hold, etc it would be nice to temporarily archive those.
Those are 3 that are top of mind. Remember, archiving can be a simple as “hiding” a section to not generate any unnecessary noise within a project view.
