1. Can you add another status to the "Open, Closed, Draft" options?

I am using the projects facility to track projects from start to finish. I would like the option to complete a job as a success, not just as closed.

Is this possible?

That probably requires some code changes, but just like you I think that would be good to have. I think the status field is an int(11) in the database, and yet still the numbers are incrementing. Perhaps they could jump by 10, 100 or maybe even a 1000 to leave room for substatuses like:

  1. closed catastrophe
  2. closed failure
  3. closed meh
  4. closed okay
  5. closed good
  6. closed success
  7. closed fantastic
  8. closed fabulous
  9. closed wonderful

However maybe you can introduce a Complementary Attribute where you can record such details? You do that here:

top menu home
left side menu “Setup”, Modules/applications, and then you search for project and switch to the tab with Complementary Attributes.
