Marking a Project as Complete or Archived
Last updated: March 10, 2026
Projects in OnRamp help teams manage onboarding and implementation work with customers. As work progresses, you may want to indicate when a project has been finished or remove it from active views.
By default, all new projects start with a status of In Progress.
When work is finished, a project can be completed. If a project should be excluded from normal views or reporting—such as test or cancelled projects—it can be archived.
How to Mark a Project Complete or Archived
To update a project’s status:
Open the Project
Click the Settings tab
Choose one of the available options:
Complete Project
Archive Project
The project will immediately update to the selected status.
Completing all Tasks in a Project will also cause the project to update to a 'Complete' status automatically.
Using Custom Internal Statuses
Some teams prefer to track more granular internal project stages than the default statuses available in OnRamp.
For example:
Kickoff Scheduled
Implementation In Progress
Awaiting Customer Input
Internal Review
Ready for Go-Live
These additional statuses can be created using Project Data Fields.
Teams commonly create a custom data field such as:
Internal Project Status
This allows you to define and track more detailed stages while still using the built-in project statuses:
In Progress
Complete
Archived
This approach provides flexibility while keeping reporting and system behavior consistent.
Best Practices
✔ Mark projects Complete when onboarding work has finished
✔ Archive test or cancelled projects so they do not affect reporting
✔ Use data fields for more detailed internal project stages
✔ Keep project statuses up to date so dashboards and insights remain accurate
Maintaining accurate project status helps teams quickly understand what work is active and what has already been completed.
