Opening, Closing, and Canceling Projects
An Overview of Project Statuses
- Queued - the default status when the project file has been created

How to update Project Statuses

- To close a project:
- Close all of the tasks and subtasks as you work through the course of the project.
- Force Close the Project. Within the project, click the action button and choose "Close Project".
- To cancel the project, go to the same Action button and choose "Cancel Project":
