Closing a project marks the end of the feedback collection phase and finalizes your 360-degree feedback process.
Once a project is closed, no further responses can be submitted.
When to Close a Project
You should close your project when:
- All expected responses have been collected
- Response rates have reached an acceptable level
- Deadlines have passed and no further input is required
- You are ready to finalize reports
Closing the project ensures that your data remains consistent for reporting.
What Happens When a Project is Closed
After closing a project:
- Responders can no longer submit or update responses
- The project is considered complete
- Reports can be generated using finalized data
This helps ensure that results are stable and not affected by late responses.
Before You Close a Project
Before closing, it is recommended to:
- Review overall response rates
- Confirm that key subjects have sufficient feedback
- Send any final reminders if needed
- Verify that no additional responses are expected
Taking these steps helps ensure the quality of your results.
Tips for Closing a Project
- Do not close the project too early—late responses can still add value
- Communicate deadlines clearly to participants
- Use reminders to maximize completion before closing
- Review project status carefully before finalizing
