How do I close a project?

(Consultant article) How to mark projects as 'complete' once you've finished all the work, and handed in all the deliverables.

This article is aimed at consultants. If you're looking for help with your client account (for posting projects and hiring), please see the 'Clients' section of the Help centre.

As a Consultant, you can request to close projects from your Project Dashboard page. However, Clients will have to approve your request to close the project first.


Your client for the project can also close the project themselves via their own Leafr account. You don't need to approve this if they do.

Here's how:

  1. Navigate to your Project Dashboard page

  2. Look for the action buttons in the top-right corner

  3. Click the Mark Project Completed button and hit confirm

What happens after I close a project?

  1. The client receives a notification to approve the project completion

  2. Once approved, the project status changes to Complete

  3. You'll be redirected to the Completed Project page where you can:

    • Upload any final invoices

    • Submit a testimonial about the project

    • Explore options for new projects

    • Raise a new project with the same client

    • Refer another project to Leafr

Remember: Only mark a project as complete when all deliverables have been fulfilled and approved by the client.
