Close an event

An event moves from New to Open when it is taken on, and to Closed when it is concluded. See The statuses.

1. Open the event and choose the Details tab.
2. Set the Status to Closed.
3. Enter the Closing date. Without it the event cannot be saved as closed.
4. Click the Save icon (a floppy disk).

The person who created the event receives a notification of the change.

Closing does not depend on the linked corrective actions: an event can be closed while its actions are still in progress, and the actions carry on with their own deadlines.

To take on an event just recorded, set the Status to Open in the same way, with no date.
