Close Tasks
Closing allows you to mark incomplete tasks as completed without rescheduling them. This is useful for tasks that are no longer relevant or have been handled otherwise.
How to Close
- Select the tasks to close by checking the corresponding boxes
- Click Close selection
- Confirm in the confirmation dialog
What Happens
For each closed task:
- The task is marked as completed
- A comment is automatically added with:
- The initially scheduled date
- The closing date (today)
- The number of days of delay
- The logged time (if any)
- If time had been logged, it is synchronized with the billing system
Example of generated comment:
Closed: planned for Mon. Feb 13, 2025, closed on Thu. Feb 16, 2025 (3 days overdue). Logged time: 2h 00m.
Difference with Rescheduling
| Rescheduling | Closing | |
|---|---|---|
| Task remains active | ✅ Yes, at the new date | ❌ No, it is completed |
| Creates a trace | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (comment on the task) |
| Logged time preserved | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes, synchronized |
| Use case | Task still relevant | Task abandoned or obsolete |
