Closing a parent task with open sub-tasks

Exception

Situation

You complete the parent Task and get a prompt or a block.

Recommendation

Close or cancel the sub-tasks first.

Why

By default the system asks for confirmation; if the company flag is on it blocks, so parents are never falsely complete.

Steps

  1. Open the sub-task list.
  2. Close or cancel each sub-task.
  3. Complete the parent Task.

Avoid

  • Confirm past the prompt while sub-tasks still have real work.
