Task status: Start, Done — and Overdue
Open, In progress, Done: how to switch the status — and why "Overdue" has nothing to do with the deadline.
Every work step, also called a task in "My Work", has one of three statuses: Open → In progress → Done. In "My Work" (sidebar → My Work), the quick buttons "In Progress" (short on mobile: "Start") and "Done" switch the status with one click. Every role except Purchasing/Warehouse may make the switch.
The rules
- No jump from Open straight to Done. Start first, then finish. In passing, this creates an honest picture of what is really in progress right now.
- Steps back are allowed. A task marked done too early goes back to In progress, one started by accident goes back to Open.
What "Overdue" really means
Completed tasks are never marked as overdue.
Auch bekannt als: start task, change status, overdue, mark as done, in progress.
