Hello Reshma,

Did you find the meaning of the term "Archived" ? Kindly explain.

It should not be interpreted as a rejection.

The status “archived” is typically used to indicate the submission and review process is considered closed. In other words, it is no longer considered “active” within the editor’s review process.

Articles that have been Accepted or Rejected will all eventually achieve “archived” status. I would anticipate you will receive feedback shortly.

Best wishes for success!

The status "Archiving  completed" usually appears when a manuscript is rejected; what it means is that the manuscript is no longer "active" in the journal submission system and has been filed away in the journal's archives of rejected manuscripts.  

Hi Reshma,

Please find the link below:

The status "archived" usually appears once the submission and review process for a manuscript is considered closed. Since your paper has already been accepted and the decision communicated to you, the review process for the paper is technically done and closed. Thus, the manuscript is no longer "active" in the journal submission system and has been filed away in the journal's archives. With regard to the corrections that you have been asked to make, they will now probably be taken care of by the journal's production team, that is, the team that will handle the copy editing and proofing for your paper.
