Delete a goal
Permanently delete a goal, and what happens to its sub-goals and check-ins.
Deleting a goal removes it, its check-ins and its sub-goals for good. To hide it instead, archive it.
Who can do this: anyone who can delete the goal. By default that is the same people who can edit it. See Roles and permissions.
Delete a goal #
- Open the goal's ⋯ menu and choose Delete Goal (Delete Metric, Delete Project).
- Click Delete to confirm.
What happens to sub-goals #
- Each sub-goal is deleted with its check-ins, all the way down.
- A sub-goal with another parent that isn't being deleted stays, under that parent. See Align to more than one parent.
- If Brev can't save the delete, the goal comes back with an error so you can try again.
To delete several goals, select them and click Delete in the toolbar. The confirmation counts sub-goals too.
