Done Goals is the history of completed work that has been cleared from the active board. It preserves each goal's article and context while giving current work more room.
Complete, Clear, Or Delete
These actions have different effects:
Leave completed cards on the board while people review the outcome. Clear them when they have served that purpose and are making the active plan harder to scan.
The board groups current work by status while keeping its activity and assignee visible.
Clearing A Column
Only space owners and goal managers can use Clear Done. It is available for any column categorized as Done, whatever its visible name.
Search and filters do not limit the clearing action. It affects the whole selected Done column in the current Goals area, including cards hidden by an assignee filter, tag filter, or search term. Clear those controls first to review the work involved.
The command takes effect without a separate confirmation screen. Move unfinished or still-needed cards to another suitable stage before using it. The column itself remains available for later completed work.
Review The Record
Open View Done in a Done column or choose Done Goals from the Goals activity options. The list follows the selected space or activity and your access to its goals.
History appears newest first by recorded completion time. Search by reference, title, or keywords, and combine that lookup with assignee and color filters when the record is large. Clearing those choices returns to the wider history.
The options menu provides No grouping, Group by Days, Group by Months, and Group by Years. Time groups show completed totals and available leading-participant information for the goals loaded so far. As older pages load, a group near a page boundary can grow. Older goals without a recorded completion date appear under Earlier.
Open Context Or Resume Work
History rows are read-only: they do not offer inline dragging, assignment, or ordering controls. Select a row to open its article beside the list and revisit the outcome and discussion.
A goal editor can reopen completed work through the article's Status control. Choose a column categorized as To Do or In Progress. This removes the goal from cleared history and returns it to the active board. Merely choosing another Done-category column does not reopen it.
Reopening clears the previous completion date. If the goal later enters Done again, that new completion receives its own date. Use this when the same objective genuinely needs more work; create a new goal when the next objective is different.
Common Questions
Why is a Done goal still on the board?
Completion alone leaves it there. It enters history when a manager clears its Done column.
Can Clear Done affect only the filtered goals I see?
No. It clears the selected column within the current area, including hidden matches. Review the full column first.
Can I bring a cleared goal back?
Yes, if you can edit it. Open its article and select a non-Done status, then return to the board and find it in that column.
Does opening history change the goal's visibility?
No. Space and private-area permissions continue to apply to the list and article.
Can I rearrange completed rows?
No. History follows completion time. Use grouping, search, and filters to review it.
