Delete a task or collaboration note

Consider deleting tasks that were created in error or that are no longer relevant. Tasks provide an audit trail for assigned activities, so you should not delete tasks if you want to maintain an audit trail of assigned activities.

Note:

Only the creator of a task or a user with the necessary rights can delete a task.

Tip:

If too many tasks appear on the Home Page, use filters to reduce the number shown. For example, view only Open or Accepted tasks.
