Archived & Cancelled Contracts

A guide to the Archived/Cancelled Contracts view, explaining the two contract categories, how to search and review past deals, key metrics, troubleshooting, and FAQs.

The Archived/Cancelled Contracts view is where you manage contracts that are no longer active. It splits them into two tabs: Archived (successfully closed) and Cancelled (fell through before closing), so you can keep historical records and track transaction outcomes.

Key features

  • Two separate tabs for different contract statuses
  • Archived Contracts tab for closed deals
  • Cancelled Contracts tab for terminated agreements
  • Search for finding specific contracts
  • Complete contract history and details
  • View button to see full contract information
  • Rows per page selector
  • Back to Contracts navigation button
  • Agent profile photos for identification
  • Full transaction date tracking

Getting started

  1. Navigate to the Contracts page.
  2. Click the Archived/Cancelled button in the top right.
  3. The Archived Contracts tab shows by default.
  4. Click the Cancelled Contracts tab to view terminated deals.
  5. Use search to find specific properties.
  6. Click View to see contract details.
  7. Use Rows per page to adjust the display.
  8. Click Back to Contracts to return to the active view.

Two contract categories

Archived Contracts tab

Stores successfully closed contracts for historical reference and reporting. Each row shows the contract ID and representation type, the full property address, the under contract date, the closing date (when the transaction closed), the agent name, the lead source, and a View button.

Contracts appear here when: the agent marks the contract as closed/completed, the transaction reaches closing, all paperwork is finalized, funds have transferred, and ownership has changed hands.

How to use archived contracts:

  • Historical reference: look up past transactions, review closing dates and timelines, and check commission and split information.
  • Reporting and analysis: calculate total closed volume, analyze time from contract to close, track seasonal patterns, and measure contract-to-close conversion.
  • Client follow-up: drive anniversary marketing, build a past-client database for referrals, and source success stories and testimonials.
  • Commission tracking: verify closed commission amounts, reconcile with financial records, prepare year-end taxes, and review agent performance metrics.

Cancelled Contracts tab

Tracks contracts that were terminated before closing, for pattern analysis and learning. Each row shows the contract ID and representation type, the property address, the under contract date, the closing date (projected before cancellation), the agent, the lead source, and a View button.

Contracts appear here when a deal falls through, including:

  • Buyer backs out: during inspection, financing falls through, appraisal issues, or cold feet / change of plans.
  • Seller withdraws: changes mind about selling, accepts a better offer, personal circumstances change, or property issues are discovered.
  • Mutual agreement to cancel: cannot agree on repairs, title issues can't be resolved, major defects discovered, or timing doesn't work.
  • Contract expires: contingencies not met in time, closing delays exceed extensions, or required actions not completed.

How to use cancelled contracts:

  • Pattern analysis: identify common cancellation reasons, spot problematic properties or areas, review cancellation rates by lead source, and track which agents have higher fall-through rates.
  • Process improvement: learn from failed transactions, improve client screening, evaluate properties better, and enhance due diligence.
  • Client re-engagement: follow up with buyers who fell out, re-list properties for sellers, and maintain relationships for future opportunities.
  • Training opportunities: review what could have been done differently, share learnings with the team, and improve negotiation and contingency management.

Managing archived contracts

Searching

  1. Use the search bar ("Search archived contracts...").
  2. Type a property address or keywords; results filter in real time.
  3. Search is tab-specific (Archived OR Cancelled, not both) and covers visible tab data only.
  4. Clear the search to see all contracts again.

Tip: If you can't find a contract, switch tabs, try a partial address or street name only, check your spelling, and try different address formats (abbreviations vs. full names).

Viewing contract details

  1. Locate the contract in the table.
  2. Click the View button (may be an arrow icon).
  3. The complete details page opens with all historical transaction data.
  4. Use the back button to return to the list.

What you can see: complete property information; all dates (listed, under contract, closed); commission details and splits; client information; the transaction timeline; notes and communications; and any attached documents.

Understanding contract history

Key dates to review:

  • Under Contract Date: when the deal began.
  • Projected Closing: the original target date.
  • Actual Closing: when it actually closed (archived).
  • Cancellation Date: when it fell through (cancelled).
  • Days in Contract: total time from contract to outcome.

Metrics to track: average days to close, fall-through rate, cancellation reasons, closing rate by lead source, and seasonal patterns (when contracts close vs. cancel).

Adjusting the table display

Use the Rows per page dropdown to select how many contracts to show (common options: 10, 25, 50, 100). More rows means less pagination; fewer rows means faster loading. The setting applies to the current tab only.

Returning to active contracts

Click Back to Contracts at the top right to return to the main Active Contracts view. Your search and sort settings reset and the last page position is lost. The browser back button is an alternative.

Best practices

  • Regular reviews: review archived contracts monthly and cancelled contracts quarterly, track closing timelines and patterns, document lessons learned, and update your CRM with follow-up opportunities.
  • Data maintenance: archive closed deals promptly, record cancellation reasons in notes, keep client contact info current, maintain accurate commission records, and archive supporting documents properly.
  • Learning and improvement: review cancellation patterns monthly, identify preventable fall-throughs, share insights with the team, adjust processes, and celebrate successful closings.
  • Client relationships: note anniversary dates for marketing, track past clients for referrals, follow up with cancelled-contract clients, and use success stories for testimonials.

Troubleshooting

Can't find a contract you know closed: check both tabs (Archived and Cancelled), search by property address, verify the contract actually reached closing and was marked closed, then check with your admin.

Contract is in the wrong tab: verify the actual outcome (closed vs. cancelled), review notes for clarification, and contact your admin to correct the status (it may need a manual update).

View button not responding: refresh, check your internet connection, verify the contract data exists, try another browser, clear the cache, then contact support if it continues.

Search not finding contracts: confirm you're on the correct tab, try partial instead of full addresses, check the other tab, and clear the search to browse manually.

Can't determine why a contract was cancelled: click View to see full details, check the notes section and communication history, contact the agent who handled it, and add notes for future reference.

Rows per page not changing: refresh, try a different number, clear the browser cache, check browser compatibility, then contact support if it persists.

Note: For most display glitches, the quickest fixes are to refresh the page, clear your browser cache, try another browser, and confirm your permissions.

FAQs

How long do contracts stay in archived? Indefinitely, for historical reference, unless manually deleted by an administrator.

What's the difference between Archived and Cancelled? Archived contracts successfully closed; cancelled contracts fell through before closing and did not complete.

Can I move a contract from Cancelled to Archived? Only if the deal actually closed. Contact your admin if a contract is categorized incorrectly.

Do archived contracts count toward my sales stats? Yes, archived (closed) contracts typically count in sales volume and transaction count. Cancelled contracts do not.

Can I delete archived contracts? Deletion typically requires admin permissions. It's recommended to keep all historical data for reporting and reference.

Can I see commission details in archived contracts? Yes, click View to see complete transaction details, including commission information.

How can I run reports on archived contracts? Check for export/reporting features, or ask your admin about running custom reports on historical data.

Why would I review cancelled contracts? To identify patterns, improve processes, learn from failures, and potentially re-engage clients who fell out of contract.

Can I reactivate a cancelled contract? Typically no. If the deal comes back together, create a new contract.

How do I know if a cancelled client is interested again? Follow up periodically, especially if the circumstances that caused the cancellation have changed.

What if I archived a contract by mistake? Contact your admin to move it back to active or change its status. Have the contract ID ready.

Can I see who closed or cancelled a contract? Check the contract details and change history if available. The assigned agent is typically shown, and system audit logs may have more detail.
