Ending or archiving actions in Roster is a straightforward process, allowing brands to efficiently manage their ambassador programs. This feature is particularly useful when you need to make room for new actions or if certain actions are no longer relevant. Note that actions with existing submissions cannot be deleted, but they can be ended and then archived. Here's a guide to ending or archiving an action in the Roster platform.
