We know how critical Programme tasks can be - they often include Form submissions, file attachments, and links to other project elements. That’s why we’re introducing better safeguards to prevent accidental removal and give you more control over who can delete tasks.

From now on, any user attempting to delete a Programme task will see a confirmation modal asking them to confirm the action. This helps avoid mistakes, especially when tasks are linked to Quotes, Timesheets, or other critical modules. 

Additionally, Archdesk allows you to separate delete task rights from manage task rights. By default, users with the “Manage Work Schedule” permission can still delete tasks, but this can now be restricted if needed. This applies not only to tasks, but also to the deletion of entire Programmes and Baselines.

Need to limit who can delete Programme elements?
You can apply this control per structure.

To do this, either:

• Contact the Archdesk Support Team, or
• Go to: Settings & Preferences → Structure → [select structure] → Manage → Edit Details & Access → Schedules, then uncheck Delete Work Schedule.
