accomplish, complete, etc.

Explanation:
solo tu conosci bene il contesto, ma quando ho letto mi è da pensare che spuntare sia una parola usata qui un po' fuori posto, per dire in realtà 'portare a termine', completare

naturalmente, nel caso in cui invece la parola sia proprio quella, perfectly agree con i colleghi.
