In the current version of Retti you cannot delete tasks off of jobs that were included in your workflow tasks by default. The reason is due to dependencies on the back end that would break if the expected tasks did not appear. Any optional or additional tasks added to a workflow *can* be deleted however. In order to change these default tasks, please submit a support ticket and your designated Retti representative will be in touch soon for more details! - [Scheduling](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/scheduling?hsLang=en-us) - [Mobile App](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/mobile-app?hsLang=en-us) - [People & Equipment](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/people-equipment?hsLang=en-us) - [FAQs](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/faqs?hsLang=en-us) - [Release Notes](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/release-notes?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Previous Releases](https://docs.retti.com/knowledge-base/release-notes?hsLang=en-us#previous-releases) [![](https://docs.retti.com/hs-fs/hubfs/240%20by%2070%20px%20black%20retti%20logo.png?width=100&height=29&name=240%20by%2070%20px%20black%20retti%20logo.png)](http://retti.com) [mailto:support@retti.com](mailto:support@retti.com) Copyright © 2025, Retti, Inc.
