You can remove a Progress Tracker from several projects at the same time

Removing an Outcome or a Progress Tracker from a project means that:

  • The Progress Tracker is not displayed on the project’s progress panel (unless it is also in a survey which has been added to that project and/or progress has already been recorded towards it in stories. If this is the case, you need to edit those stories to remove the progress tagged to that Progress Tracker or delete those stories)

  • The Progress Tracker is not displayed in the Progress trays while creating a story using Timeline Update

If you want to remove specific Achievement Trackers, Multiple Choice Trackers or Numerical Trackers from a project without removing the outcome that they are part of, follow these steps to remove a Progress Tracker from a single project one at a time.
