When going to remove or adjust tasks, you will notice that there are two options available to you, Archive and Delete.
Archiving a task
Archiving a task removes the task from the assignee's available tasks. Archived tasks are still counted toward overall task completion percentages for the user as well as project and report task completion percentages.
Deleting a task
Deleting a task removes the task from the assignee's available tasks, but removes the task completely from all task completion reporting similar to if the task never existed in the first place.
For Example:
I have a project with 100 tasks of which 70 have been completed, and I want to remove the remaining 30 tasks from the project.
Archive:
After archiving the remaining 30 tasks, the project will be completed. The project completion percentage for this project will be 70%. The overall task completion count will be 70/100.
Delete:
After deleting the remaining 30 tasks the project will be completed. The project completion percentage for this project will be 100%. The overall task completion count will be 70/70.
