Deleting Tasks in the Task List

With the appropriate permissions, team members can delete tasks in the Task List. By default the ability to do this is limited to team members with the project-level project manager role.

You cannot delete a task if it has actual work logged against it.

Note: If a schedule has been synchronized with a Microsoft Project file using ProjectTransit, you cannot add, edit or delete tasks in PPM. For more information about ProjectTransit, see ProjectTransit Overview.

To delete tasks in the Task List:

1. Navigate to the workspace from which you are deleting a task.
2. On the Project Menu, click Tasks and Task List.
3. Select one or more tasks and do one of the following:
4. Click the Delete icon or press the Delete key
   or
5. Right-click on a task to open the context-sensitive menu, then click Delete Task
   Note: With more than one task selected, click Delete.
   

A confirmation message displays.

4. Click Yes to delete the task.
   
   Note: If you do not have permission to delete tasks or the task has actual work logged, a message displays, informing you that the task(s) could not be deleted.
   
   For more information, see Using the Task List.
