Mark a task done wherever you see it, and change or delete it from the contact's **Tasks** tab.

## Mark a task done

- On Today, click **Complete**. If the task belongs to a contact, Relivo then opens **Log it, then set the next step** so you can log what you did.
- On a contact's **Tasks** tab, or their **Next action**, click the round button beside the task (**Mark done**).
- In the contact preview, click the round button beside the **Next action**.
- On a deal's page, click the round button beside the task under **Tasks**.

A finished task stays on the **Tasks** tab, crossed out, and the contact's timeline gets a "Task completed" line. Any reminder it had is canceled. A task can't be reopened once it is done.

## Edit a task

1. **Find the task**

    Open the contact, choose the **Tasks** tab, and hover over the task.

2. **Click the pencil**

    **Edit task** opens with its **Title**, **Note**, **Due date**, **Priority** and **Reminder**.

3. **Save**

    Change what you need and click **Save changes**. A changed reminder replaces the old one.

To move a task off Today without finishing it, give it a later **Due date** here.

You can also change the contact's **Next action** with **Edit** beside it. **Edit next action** opens with the reminder empty, so if the task had a reminder, set it again before you click **Save changes**, or it is removed. Editing from the **Tasks** tab keeps the reminder as it was.

## Delete a task

On the **Tasks** tab, hover over the task and click the trash button, then click **Delete**, or **Keep** to leave it. Deleting cancels its reminder.

:::warning
A deleted task can't be brought back.
:::

Tasks without a contact can only be completed, from Today. Tasks on a deal are edited and deleted from the deal contact's **Tasks** tab.
