How to Complete a Task and Stop Tracking It

This guide explains how to mark a task as complete. Completing a task is an administrative action that closes it and prevents employees from tracking any more time against it. You can complete a task for all assigned employees at once or for specific individuals.

Prerequisite

Your user role must have the Complete/restore task for all users permission enabled. An administrator can configure this in Roles by editing the relevant role.

Complete a task

  1. Go to Projects > Tasks in the main menu.
  2. Locate the task you want to close in the task list.
  3. Click the Actions dropdown on the right side of the task row.
  4. To close the task for everyone, select Complete for all users. The task is closed and unavailable for time tracking for all associated employees.
  5. To close it for specific employees, select Select Users to Complete/Reopen Task. A window opens listing all employees currently assigned to the task. Click Complete, or tick the box next to each employee for whom you want to close the task.
