Shows the number of completed experiments vs. total. - Corresponds to how many Experiments are marked as 'Done' in the Experiment 'Status' column #### **'Tasks Done'** - Shows the number of fully completed tasks vs the total within the total Project. - For teams using task e-signatures / CFR compliance feature set, this column relates to the number of Tasks that are fully signed and marked in the 'Done' (purple) Task Status [![](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-06-16%20at%2011-37-38-png.png?width=339&height=86&name=Screenshot%202025-06-16%20at%2011-37-38-png.png)](https://knowledgebase.scinote.net/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-06-16%20at%2011-37-38-png.png?hsLang=en) -
