Task completion

Single, bulk, and undo flows for marking tasks done and what each writes to history.

Subtasks

Built with

A task is done when its done flag flips to true. The flag carries a completed_by (the user) and a completed_at (timestamp). Both feed Pi’s velocity model and the on-time launch report. Completing a task fires an onboarding.task_completed webhook and adds a task_completed entry to the audit log.

Complete a single task

  1. Open the onboarding and switch to the Tasks tab.
  2. Click the checkbox to the left of the task title. The task strikes through and done flips immediately.
  3. To add context, open the task first and click Complete with note. The note goes on the task’s activity feed.

You can also complete from your personal My tasks view in the Workbench, which is the faster path when you’re closing tasks across multiple onboardings.

Complete multiple tasks at once

  1. On the Tasks tab, hold Shift and click two tasks to select a range, or check each task’s selection box.
  2. Click Bulk actions > Mark complete in the bar that appears at the top.
  3. Confirm. Every selected task writes its own audit entry with the same timestamp.

Bulk completion respects subtask rules. Completing a parent task with open subtasks asks if you want to complete the subtasks too. Default is yes.

Undo a completed task

Within 30 days of completion, click the checkbox again or open the task and click Mark incomplete. The done flag flips to false, completed_at clears, and the audit log records task_reopened with your user and a timestamp.

After 30 days, the inline undo is hidden. Admins can reopen via Task menu > Reopen at any time.

What happens when a parent task’s subtasks all complete

The parent task auto-completes when every subtask is checked. The auto-completion writes task_completed with completed_by: system and auto: true in the audit log. Undoing the parent reopens it but leaves the subtasks done; you’d flip each subtask’s done flag back if you want to redo the work.

Phase completion and task completion

Closing every task in a phase doesn’t auto-advance the onboarding. Phase moves happen manually so you can decide carryover; see Move through phases. Pi flags a phase with zero open tasks as ready to advance on the Workbench.

Gotchas

  • A customer-facing task notifies the customer when it’s marked done. If you’re cleaning up old tasks, set them to internal-only first or you’ll send a flurry of “done” emails to the primary contact.
  • completed_at uses the workspace time zone from Admin > Workspace settings > General, not the user’s local zone. Bulk completing across midnight can put tasks on different calendar days from what the user sees.
  • Reopening a task does not reopen the parent onboarding if it’s already done. Resume the onboarding first; see Onboarding states.
