While our team will automatically close projects after all requested sessions have been completed and participation recorded, you may wish to close a project prior to this point. We’ve created a simple way to kick off the close process directly from the project workspace!
When submitting a close request, you can provide a signal to our team about whether the project was successful, leave comments for our team, and have a project coordinator review the request and close the project within a few business days.
How do I request to close a project?
You can request to close a project from any page within the project workspace. To do so, click on the ellipsis in the upper-right corner to reveal a dropdown with various project actions including “Close Project”.
Several project criteria must be met in order to proceed with a close request:
- For moderated studies: There cannot be any upcoming sessions with participants scheduled, and all scheduled sessions in the past must have been marked as completed, canceled, or no show.
- For unmoderated studies: All participants must have been marked as completed, canceled, or no show.
If any of the criteria is unmet, our system will prevent you from proceeding to request a project close. An error message will be displayed about upcoming sessions or unmarked participation, and the close button will be disabled until the issue has been resolved.
Submitting a request to close your project will prompt our team to review and close the project for you within a few days. Your project status will change to “Pending close request”, and once finalized, will update to “Complete”. Please note: once a close request has been submitted and the project status has changed to “Pending close request”, you will not be able to undo this action.
