When you've decided that you want to delete a task template and you have selected Remove from the drop down, you will see this pop up. 

Simply select Remove to permanently delete the task template. Note: This will not delete tasks that have already been assigned in the offboarding process. Deleting task templates is irreversible! Be certain that you no longer want the task before clicking remove.
