Hey All,

It seems if a record type is changed and the archiver originally archived it as say ao and now it’s type string that it will not archive it.  It shows the change in the archiver of the type from ao to string in the details for that record and will start to tally up lost events.

I can’t find in the documentation if there is any way to fix this in the archiver itself or if the archiver should adjust to the type change.

Trying to hit the archive button on those records again does not update the type change.  I have only been able to delete the record from the archiver and re-archive it again.

Is there a quick way to delete all archived records or a subset of them? deleting hundreds of records that got type changed can be quite tedious.

Thanks
