# Issue statuses
A status is an issue attribute that reflects the current state of the issue completion process, For example: "Open", "In progress", "Testing", and "Closed".
For each [issue type](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow.md) in a queue [workflow](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/add-ticket-type.md), you can define their own set of statuses and [transitions](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md) between them. The queue owner and users granted [permission to access the queue settings](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/queue-access.md) can edit statuses in queue workflows.
You can find the list of available statuses in the [Yandex Tracker settings](https://tracker.yandex.com/admin/statuses). You can use these statuses in any workflows. If you don't find a suitable status among the default statuses, an [administrator](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/role-model.md#admin) can create a new status. You'll see the new status in the main list, and other users can start using it in their workflows.
## Setting up statuses in the workflow editor {#status-settings}
You can set up statuses within a workflow using the workflow visual editor. To open the workflow editor:
1.
In the left-hand panel, click **Queues** and select a queue. {#queue}
1.
In the top right corner of the queue page, click **Queue settings**. {#settings}
1. Go to the **Workflows** tab and click the name of the workflow where you want to edit statuses.
The workflow visual editor will open.
1. To set up a status, select it in the workflow diagram to open the status settings panel.
You can also [add new statuses to the diagram](#add-status).
### Workflow start {#initial-status}
Workflow start is the initial status of a newly created issue. In the workflow visual editor, the status being the workflow start is indicated with a flag indicator.
To make a status the workflow's starting point, select it in the diagram and click in the top right corner on the right-hand panel.
{% note warning "" %}
A workflow must have a status that starts the workflow. Statuses of any type can act as the workflow start.
{% endnote %}
### Status types {#status-types}
You can define a status type within a workflow. Statuses of the same type all have the same color. Issues with the **Completed** and **Canceled** status are considered closed: they appear with a crossed out key in the queue.
To set a status type, choose it in the diagram and select a value in the **Status type** field on the right-hand panel:
* : Issue has been created but is not in progress yet.
* : Issue is in progress.
* : Work on the issue is paused.
* : Issue has been completed and closed.
* : Issue has not been not completed and is closed.
### Status update after adding a comment {#change-with-comment}
The **Changing the status when commenting** setting allows updating the status after a comment is added to an issue. It is useful in linear processes, e.g., for the support team.
1. In the diagram, select the status from which the issue must transition when a comment is added to it.
1. Click **Changing the status when commenting** on the right-hand panel.
1. Select the target status from the list that the issue should change to after adding a comment. The list contains transitions for the status you are setting up, which have been added to the workflow diagram. Sample transitions in the list include:
* **To the previous status**: Issue will switch back to its previous status.
* **Close** transition: Issue will switch to the **Completed** status.
* **Need info** transition: Issue will switch to the **Paused** status.
* **Reopen** transition: Issue will switch to the **Initial** status.
1. If necessary, enable the **Set assignee from previous status** and **Only if comment was left by assignee** options.
1. Click **Save**.
### Transitions between statuses {#add-action}
For a workflow to run properly, make sure to set up transitions between statuses. For more information, see [Configure transitions between statuses in a workflow](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md).
To set up a status transition:
1. Select a status in the diagram, then go to **Transitions** and click **Add** on the right-hand panel.
The **Source status** field will show the source status. Fill in the **New status** field with the target status that you can choose from the list. The list contains statuses which have been added to the workflow diagram.
1. **Name**: This field is for the name of the button in the Yandex Tracker interface that will switch the issue to this status. The same name will be used for the transition in the editor. By default, the name matches the new status in the transition; however, you can edit it. The **Name in English** is filled in automatically.
1. You can configure the following for transitions:
* [Automation](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md#automatization): Auto actions to be performed during a transition.
* [Transition conditions](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md#conditions): Conditions under which a transition will be available.
* [Transition screen](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md#screen): Pop-up window where the user must fill in the respective fields to update the issue parameters.
### Allowing transitions from any status {#any-status}
If you want to add a status that can be reached from any other status in the workflow, use the **Allow transitions from any status** option. This way, you won't have to manually set up transitions for each status.
1. Select a status in the diagram.
2. Select **Allow transitions from any status** on the right-hand panel, and the diagram will show the **Any status** meta transition for this status.
3. To [set up the **Any status** transition](https://yandex.ru/support/tracker/en/manager/workflow-action-edit.md#set-transition), choose it in the workflow diagram.
### Copying transitions {#copy-transitions}
You can apply transitions of one status to other statuses. To do this:
1. Select a status in the diagram and click on the right-hand panel.
1. Click **Copy transitions from this status to another** or **Paste transitions from another status**.
1. In the list, select a status to insert or copy the transitions to.
## Adding a status to a workflow {#add-status}
To add a status to a workflow:
1.
In the left-hand panel, click **Queues** and select a queue. {#queue}

The most popular statuses are available in Yandex Tracker by default. If you do not see the status you need, the admin can [create one](#create-status).

* Make it the [workflow start](#initial-status).
* Select the [status type](#status-types).
* Set up a [status update after adding a comment](#change-with-comment).
