Archive/Restore resource

App Admin can manually archive selected individual resources using the Archive resource button on the right.

Upon archiving, the resource's capacity is reset to zero, and the team's availability is marked as Unavailable starting from the archive date. While you have the flexibility to restore the resource at any time, it's important to note that the team's availability needs to be reset manually.

Archived resources are handled in a similar way as active ones—archived users can still be added to Boxes and teams.
