Set Up Automatic Archiving and Deletion of Customer Order Quotes

Control how long Customer Order quotes remain active before Blackpurl automatically archives or deletes them.

Blackpurl allows you to control when Customer Order quotes are automatically archived and deleted. By default, no archiving or deletion settings are active — you must configure them to enable this behaviour.

When calculating archive dates, Blackpurl uses the last modified date of the quote — not the date it was created.

For example:

  • To automatically archive quotes after 60 days of inactivity, enable the archive toggle and enter 60.

  • To automatically delete archived quotes after a further 180 days, enable the deletion toggle and enter 180.

Important: You cannot enable automatic deletion without also enabling archiving. Customer Order quotes must be archived before they can be deleted. Once a Customer Order quote has been automatically deleted, it cannot be recovered.
