Tracking jobs

Archiving & deleting

When a job wraps up — rejected, accepted, or just gone quiet — you can archive it to get it off your board without losing anything, or delete it for good. Archiving is the reversible option; deleting is permanent.


Archiving a job

Open the job in the Edit panel and press Archive Job in the footer. The panel closes, a toast reads "Job updated", and the job disappears from the board and Table view.

Archiving hides the job — it doesn't change it. Everything is preserved exactly as you left it:

  • The job's stage and all its fields
  • Its stage history (archiving itself doesn't add a history entry, since the stage doesn't change)
  • Its next steps, including due dates
  • Its attached resume, notes, and posting link

To bring a job back, open it from the archived view (see below) and press Unarchive Job — the same footer button, relabeled for archived jobs.

Viewing archived jobs

The toolbar has an archived-view toggle:

  • Desktop: an archive-box icon button in the toolbar. Its tooltip reads Show archived jobs, and it stays highlighted in mauve while the archived view is on (tooltip then reads Show active jobs).
  • Mobile: a Show archived jobs item in the toolbar's ... overflow menu, which switches to Show active jobs while active. See Trackur on mobile for the full mobile layout.

The view is always one or the other — you see either your active jobs or your archived jobs, never both mixed together. In the archived view, every card carries a gray Archived badge, and search, the stage filter, and drag-and-drop all keep working, so you can find and reorganize archived jobs the same way as active ones.

If you have nothing archived, the archived view reads "No archived jobs." with a Back to active jobs button.

The toggle resets on reload

The archived view is temporary — reloading the page always brings you back to your active jobs.

How archived jobs are counted

  • The amber "due" pill in the toolbar only counts active jobs — an archived job's overdue next steps never trigger it.
  • Stats view includes archived jobs in most numbers; only the "Active pipeline" tile excludes them.
  • CSV export includes archived jobs, though the archived status itself isn't part of the file.

Deleting a job

You can delete a job from three places:

  • The Delete button on a board card
  • The trash icon in a table row's Actions column
  • The red Delete Job button in the Edit panel footer

Each one opens a confirmation dialog titled Delete Job that asks "Are you sure you want to delete this job? This action cannot be undone." Press the red Delete button to confirm. A toast reads "Job deleted".

Deleting is permanent

There is no undo. Deleting a job also permanently deletes its stage history and next steps. If there's any chance you'll want the record later — for stats, or to remember how a company treated you — archive it instead.
