Central Repository - how to change the status from active to non-active (or we use retired)?

I see no way to mark a piece of content in the Central Repository as not active. If there’s a way to do so, I’d like to hear about it. The status column seems to be always Active.

This is also something that we would like to be able to do. How else are we supposed to indicate that an item in the Central Repository is no longer to be used? We don’t want it mistakenly added to a course.

@Pam Schaw and @ariel.zimmerman - there are a few ways to skin this one - but for many we handle it with naming convention...and by creating a catalog for courses that are meant for archiving things only to park your older courses.

If you create a category of Archived in your CP and maybe change the name of the training material to:

training material name - retired

maybe that can help as a better practice in the face of not having the ability to change the status of a course/training material to retired or archived.

A last train up - if you look at the filters related to the status, you can see there are a few. Take a look at my screenshot:

Now that I take a look (I do see it every day, but we dont use it too much as we build stuff in house) - I can see the few courses that have reached an expired status. That and expiring are triggered by the Docebo Marketplace it is a reserved status for it. Processing and Processing Failed looks like they are related to imports that were taking a long time that may have failed during the loading.

I saw those statuses but discovered they only apply to Docebo content, so it didn’t serve our needs.

We’ve decided to put a Z. at the front of retired materials

I just ran into this as well.  It is rather confusing to have a status of Active for a training material in CLOR when we do not want that item to be used anymore.  Since we already have a standard practice of moving courses to an “INACTIVE” category structure in Course Management, I’ll just start doing that in the CLOR as well.  But it help to also be able to change the status of these items to something to indicate that they are no longer active to further prevent them from being used.
