Use this interactive demo to learn how to move rows into an archive sheet in Smartsheet.

Quick summary

Archiving rows in Smartsheet lets you move completed or outdated data to a separate sheet, keeping your active Grid View clean and organized. This process uses the built-in Move to Another Sheet feature to transfer rows without deleting them.


Steps

  1. In Smartsheet's Grid View, locate the row you want to archive and open its Row Menu.
  2. Select Move to Another Sheet from the available row menu options.
  3. Choose the destination archive sheet where you want the row to be stored.
  4. Click OK to confirm and complete the move.
  5. The selected row is now moved to the archive sheet, removed from your active sheet.

📌 Why this matters

Archiving rows in Smartsheet is essential for teams that need to keep their active project sheets focused and clutter-free without permanently losing historical data. By moving completed or outdated rows to a dedicated archive sheet, users can maintain a clean Grid View while preserving a full audit trail for compliance, reporting, or future reference. The Move to Another Sheet feature makes this a fast, non-destructive workflow that requires no manual copying or data re-entry. This capability helps project managers and operations teams scale their Smartsheet workspaces more effectively as data volumes grow.
