<h4>Archive orders based on order status</h4>
<p>Easily archive WooCommerce orders based on their status. Whether it’s completed, canceled, or custom statuses, Archiva lets you automate the process and keep your order list clutter-free.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-18734005433279 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/settings1.png?w=896" alt="archiva settings" width="896" height="430" /></p>
<h4>Archive Frequency</h4>
<p>Choose an archive frequency that is perfect for you store. Archiva runs the automated archive schedule once every 12 hours by default. But you can set it to run as frequently as every 30 minutes. <img class="alignnone wp-image-18734005433281 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/settings2.png?w=709" alt="archive frequency" width="709" height="122" /></p>
<h4>Archive failed/canceled orders quickly</h4>
<p>If you wish to archived failed/canceled orders quickly (within a few days) while continuing to retain the normal orders for a year, we have you covered. Set a shorter retention period for such orders.</p>
