Loading dock repairs in Recently deleted with 27 days left and a Restore button Loading dock repairs in Recently deleted with 27 days left and a Restore button When a project ends, close it: set its status to Completed or Cancelled and it moves from Open to Closed on the Projects page, with everything on it kept. Delete a project only when it should not be there at all. A deleted project waits in Recently deleted for 30 days, and you can restore it until then.
Beta
Projects are rolling out gradually, so your workspace may not have them yet. If Projects is missing from the sidebar, ask us to turn them on.

Close a finished project

Open the project and, in Properties on its Overview, set the status to Completed or Cancelled. It leaves the Open list for Closed, and keeps its updates, milestones, team and clients. A closed project can still be edited and updated, and setting an open status again puts it back on the Open list. Shifts and time entries tagged with it keep it, and the project picker lists it under Closed. Nobody can clock in on a closed project, and on a schedule grouped by project its band takes no shift that does not already carry it.

Delete a project

1

Open the project's menu

On the project, open More actions, the three-dot menu at the right of the bar. In the list, a project’s own three-dot menu works too.
2

Delete it

Choose Delete, then confirm in Delete project.
The project leaves the Projects page and Search and moves to Recently deleted. Nobody can change it, post on it, reply to its updates or put it on new work until it is restored. Shifts and time entries that carry it keep it, marked (deleted).

Restore it

Open Recently deleted from the three-dot menu beside New project on the Projects page. Each deleted project shows how many days it has left. Choose Restore and it comes back with its updates, milestones and team, on the Open or Closed list as its status says.
After 30 days a deleted project leaves Recently deleted and can no longer be restored. Close a project instead whenever you might need it again.
