Archiving Tracks
Archive tracks you don't need anymore without deleting them:
- Select tracks using the checkboxes
- Click the Archive button in the bulk actions toolbar
- Archived tracks are hidden from the main view but can be restored anytime
Tip: Use archiving to keep your sessions clean while preserving your search history.
Reprocessing Tracks
If a track shows an error or you want to check for updated prices:
- Click the Retry button on the track card
- Or select multiple tracks and use bulk reprocess
- Beatfinder will search all platforms again
When to reprocess:
- Track shows an error status
- Prices may have changed
- Track was not found initially
Managing Purchases
Keep track of what you've bought:
- Click the shopping cart icon on any track
- Select which platform(s) you purchased from
- The track will be marked as purchased with a green checkmark
