# How do I edit or archive a program?

> Change a program's settings, understand what locks once it's in use, and retire it without deleting.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * How you open a program depends on status: clicking a **Draft** opens the full builder, while an **Active** or **Complete** program opens its detail page. The gear **Configure** panel is available on every program card, whatever the status.
  * Some settings **lock once a program is in use** — your registration-style options narrow once there are enrollments or drop-ins, the billing schedule locks as soon as a paid program has an active enrollment, and you can't remove a schedule slot that still has active registrations.
  * Only a **Draft** can be deleted (from inside the builder). Once a program is Active there's no delete regardless of enrollment count — you **Complete** it instead, which closes registration for good and keeps enrolled athletes on the roster as a record. Completing can't be undone.
</Note>

Find your program under **Registrations → Programs**.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Edit a draft">
    Click a draft program to reopen the full builder. Move through the steps, change anything, and save — nothing is locked yet because no one has registered.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure a program">
    On any program's card, click the **gear (Configure)** icon to open the tabbed panel — **General**, **Schedule**, **Requirements**, **Waitlist**, **Staff**, and **Registration** (Requirements and Waitlist can be hidden depending on the program's enrollment mode). The **Billing Schedule** lives inside the **General** tab — there's no separate Billing tab. Make your changes and click **Save Changes**. Fields that have locked (registration style, billing schedule, in-use schedule slots) appear but are disabled.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete (archive) a program">
    In the Configure panel, click **Complete** and confirm. The program is marked **Complete** and its registration closes permanently — it can't be reopened, so use this to retire a finished program rather than deleting its history. To delete rather than complete, the program must still be a **Draft**: open it in the builder and use **Delete Draft**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Completing a program keeps its roster, sessions, and historical payment records for your reports. Enrolled athletes are marked complete so the roster stays as a record of who took part; their remaining recurring charges and any upcoming per-session registrations are cancelled, and anyone still waitlisted or awaiting payment is removed. To change one occurrence rather than the whole program, edit that session instead.
