Defining Status

Overview

Status expresses progress not as a numerical progress percentage, but as a meaningful string.
By expressing it with strings such as "Not Started," "Awaiting Review," and "Completed," progress management can be made simpler and easier to understand.

This section introduces the functionality related to defining statuses.

This functionality is not available in Standard Edition.

Common Procedure

To define a status, perform the following steps as a common prerequisite:

1. Click your login name in the TimeTracker RX global navigation.

   

2. Select "System Settings".

3. Click "Item Type" in the local navigation.

   

4. Select "Status" from the left menu.

Adding a Status

Add a work item status using the following method.

By adding it to the project status, you can use it for the work item status.

Please refer to the following video (4:50~) for the operation flow.

1. Click the "+" icon at the top of the status list.
   

   

2. Enter the status information in the "Create Status" dialog.
