What are best practices for dealing with completed tasks

Hello,

 

I have many completed tasks interspaced between outstanding tasks. I understand I can filter ALL tasks to only show "Not Started" and "In Progress" but that's an extra step I'd rather avoid doing every single day.

 

So, what's the best practice for dealing with "completed tasks"? Is there a view with a default filter I can set that will filter out completed tasks?

    i also am having this issue - i would like to filter out all completed tasks and see only the ones i'm working on, like before. other forums said to adjust "filter (2)" - i don't have filter (2) and clearing all my filters still shows pending tasks w/completed tasks. thank you!

      Hi Robin, for a while the filter was set to hide completed tasks by design (It would show Filter (2) meaning 2 filters were set).  There were many complaints about that change, and it was reverted.  If you don't want to see completed then choose, Filter, Progress and select broth not started and in progress.  These 2 were the 2 in Filter (2) and you will no longer see Completed.  Best practice is also to delete completed tasks at some point, as there are limits you might hit otherwise.

      Best regards,

      Brian.
