# Project checklist

The checklist in a project is the central view of the scope of work. Each task corresponds to one service from the accepted quote, so nothing slips through and you can see how much work is left at a glance.

## Where the tasks come from

Bulido builds the checklist **automatically** when you create a project from an accepted quote. Every service in the quote becomes one task:

- **Room services**: e.g. *Wall painting* in the *Bathroom*, *Floor laying* in the *Living room*. Each shows up as a separate task with the room labelled.
- **Additional services**: items that aren't tied to a room (transport, debris removal) land on the list with an **Additional** badge.

The list is grouped by room, so you can see at a glance which room still has work left.

## Ticking off completed tasks

Tick a task off with one click on its checkbox. Bulido then:

- Flips its status to **Completed** and records the completion date.
- Updates the project progress bar (e.g. *Completed 8 of 12 services*).
- Shows a toast: *"Checklist item marked as completed."*.

If you tick one by mistake, click the checkbox again. The task goes back to **Pending** (toast: *"Checklist item reopened."*).

## Sync with the quote

The checklist mirrors the quote's current scope:

- If you **edit the quote** and add a new service, it shows up as a new task on the list.
- If you **remove a service from the quote**, the task stays on the list with a **Removed from quote** badge, so you don't lose the history of completed work.

The sync is one-way: quote → project. Ticking off tasks in the project doesn't change the quote.

## Settling completed tasks

Completed tasks can be tied to a **labor payment** from the client. That's how Bulido tracks which services the client has actually paid for. Settled tasks get a **Settled** badge. Details in [Record client payments](/helpcenter/projects/client-payments).
