Delete Task Groups

Note: This feature is available to the following product editions: 
  • Starter
  • Standard
  • Premium

It is possible to delete task groups and their tasks if needed. You can delete task groups in Task Group Mode in Kanban and Row Views, as well as in Plan View. It is also possible to delete task groups from the Portfolio tab Project View.

Generally, it might not be best practice to delete records (such as task groups) as they may be needed for reporting and analysis. Instead, you could consider archiving task groups because archived task groups will remain accessible for reporting and analysis: Archive Task Groups.

Note: Deleting the task group deletes all of its tasks as well. If you do not want to delete the tasks, reassign them to other task groups/projects prior to deletion.
