Archive paper check

Request

Archive a paper check by setting its status to ARCHIVED.

Archiving a paper check removes it from active workflows without deleting it. This allows you to:

  • Remove a check from the print queue
  • Create a new check for the same transaction
  • Maintain audit history

Note: Archived checks can still be retrieved via the list and get endpoints by filtering with record_status=archived.
