SAQs go into “Archived” status when a new version is deployed to the system (generally on a yearly basis). 

A status of “Released” means that you have completed and released the SAQ for scoring & sharing with your customer(s)/RBA verification. 

If an SAQ is in “Unreleased” status, this means that the SAQ can still be edited. It may be complete, however until the SAQ is released it will not be accessible to your customer(s).
