I'm having a similar problem, my game is updated. My sim joined freelance crafting. She took a gig. She will try to call the client (via computer for some reason) but the goal does not complete. No goals complete and the gig cannot be cancelled except by changing careers. I hope this is fixed soon.

I just had this issue, built a kid's bed and got paid without closing the job. Though, I didn't get paid the amount that the job was suppose to give me. It's frustrating. I hope they fix it soon. I'll have to try candles.

My problem is very similar. I can send the rug to the client, but it won’t tick off that it has been completed in the career box. The rug is no longer in my inventory, and a message from the client telling me how much they love the work has appeared. So I can never complete the gig.

This still doesn't work. It's very frustrating that there's still no fix after all this time.

I am also having this.problem. I only just bought eco life within the last month and this week decided to try a freelancer (stopped using freelancer career back when this was an issue with the photographer career.
My household has a freelance graphic artist (so far, her gigs complete) and a freelance maker (his gigs do not complete).
For my maker, he sends the finished item in, the client loves it, bit the job requirement does not get fulfilled.
Thanks,
Anja

I'm also experiencing the issue where I can chat with the client, fabricate (a rug in this instance), and go to the computer and send it for clients approval. I get the good feedback dialogue and the rug disappears, but the last goal for the gig is not checked off so I can't complete the gig

Here's a video clip of the bug.
I can send my save later, but I can share some information.
1. I can send items for approval, and I get paid for every item I send
2. The task never gets checked off for the duration of the gig
3. My sim loses job performance because the gig does not get completed
4. Items that can be selected in world do count toward the checklist
5. Rugs can't be selected in world, so the work around does not work
6. Sometimes, especially when multiple tasks are queued, my sim will "Reset" as if I used the debug "Reset Object" when sending for approval via the computer.
I play on console and never used mods
