Inactivate a Task
![Ami Veltrie](https://us.v-cdn.net/6031209/uploads/userpics/8P0VG5OTWNRU/nHI3K0J42GX6A.jpg)
Is there any plan to create functionality to inactivate a task?
I'm looking for a way to indicate a task is not needed AND remove it from calculations (schedule, predecessors, % complete, etc) yet still keep it visible (with a line through it) in on project plan.
We are forced to make all these edits manually, when it could be one simple click "inactivate task".
Thank you!

I use this workaround quite frequently...
Checkbox column titled [Needed For Client?]
I then factor into all of my calculations whether or not that box is checked.
=COUNTIFS([Needed For Client?]:[Needed For Client?], 1, Status:Status, @cell <> "Green")
for example will count how many are not "Green" or complete so long as the box is checked saying that particular row is needed for the client.
I will also create conditional formatting that turns the font a light gray and strikes through.
