Task Statuses

Task Status Indicators

Pending

A pending task is a task that is waiting to be worked on.

In-Progess

A task in-progress is a task that is currently being worked on by the assigned user(s). Upon completion of the task, the next task(s) in the workflow will be put in-process.

Hold

Individual tasks may be placed on hold or a task may be placed on hold if the task's workflow has been placed on hold. Placing a task on hold may place it's workflow on hold if the task causes a road block.

Completed

A completed task can be rejected unless it's the last task in a workflow branch. If the task is the last task of a workflow, marking the task completed will also mark the workflow as completed.

Canceled

Individual tasks may not be canceled. Only workflows may be canceled.

Rejected

A completed task may be rejected. When the task has been rejected, the task will go back to the original assigned user(s)

Off Path

When a task will never be reached due to a decision that was made at an upstream decision node

Skipped

Tasks that were skipped as a result of branching and/or looping
