# How do I reopen and edit an archived plan?

## Have you already completed a review and archived a plan, but you realized that you need to add some extra information? You can still edit the plan by unarchiving it. If it’s your own plan, you can ask an Admin to so for you.

### To unarchive a plan as a Manager or an Admin follow these steps:

1. Click on My Account, then click on Profile.
2. On the left side of the page under the Team section click on the name of the Employee who needs their plan to be unarchived.
3. Click on the name of the plan that needs to be unarchived.
4. Click the “Re-open?” button to change the status from “*archived”* to “*current”*.

The employee will receive an automatic email notification letting them know that their plan has been reopened.
