How to update a project status
We recommend keeping the project status up to date and periodically adding comments about the work progress.
Changing the status
To update the status, change the value of the Status field in the right panel.
Available statuses
- New — the project has been created, but work hasn't started yet.
- In progress — work on the project is underway.
- Complete — work on the project has been completed successfully.
- Postponed — the project is currently not relevant, and work has stopped.
- At risk — the project may exceed its deadline, or the results may differ from what's expected.
- Blocked — the project is on hold, and achieving the result depends on external circumstances.
- Planned — the project's progress is in line with the planned schedule.
- Draft — a preliminary version of the project.
- Canceled — work on the project has stopped.
