Archive a price · Ownrecord docs

Archives a price: it can't be sold any more and leaves the pricing table. Subscriptions and invoices that use it are unaffected. Its lookup key stays until you move it to the new price (prices.move_lookup_key). Archiving an archived price changes nothing; reactivate it with prices.update and active: true.

reason is recorded in the audit log.
