# Closing a Task

Closing a task is as simple as clicking the Close button against the task. Any sub-tasks still open will also be closed.

It is good practice *(but not required)* to provide an activity note when closing a task:

Once closed, the status of the task changes:

And the task is removed from the To Do list.

You can re-open a task that was accidentally closed through the project.
