Changing Task Status Values (Swimlanes)

Administrators can change the default Task Status Values from Not Started, In Progress, or Complete. You can add any values that your team needs. You must use a minimum of three. These values will be available for each Project on the server, but the ones selected will be available for the current project.
Important: For Scrum Project types, each Task Status Value that is defined will be an individual column in the TEAM ROOM > GUID-4CD54104-BA3F-4B9E-BF66-92AD51CBE1E5-low.png Sprint Cards view, so limiting the Values will help keep that view manageable.
Tip: Watch how to do it: Creating a New Task Status Value
  1. Log in with Project Administrator credentials.
  2. Choose a Project from the Projects list GUID-05394A46-71B6-46F6-86C2-5ADB5428A952-low.png.
  3. Click Administration.
  4. Click the Project Settings tab.
  5. The available Status Values appear in the list in the Task Status Management group. The ones that are checked are the ones that are being used.
    1. Click New Task Status to add a new Status Value.
    2. Alternatively, you can double click any existing value to edit it.
    3. Click the corresponding check box to enable that Status Value.
    4. Drag-drop the items to place them in the order you prefer. This order represents how they will display in columns in the Sprint Cards view. The first checked item in the list will be indicated as the Starting Task Value while the last will state Completed Task Value.
