Project Assignment

Statuses can be applied workspace-wide so every project sees them, or restricted to the projects that need them. This is the Projects panel at the foot of the status editor.

All projects

The Applies to row offers two choices. All projects — including new ones — makes the status available in every project in the workspace, and in any project created later. This is the right setting for the standard outcomes every team uses.

Selected projects only

Switch Applies to to Selected projects and a Projects picker appears below it. It is a multi-select with a search box: type to narrow the list, tick the projects that should offer the status. The row label carries the running count, and the Statuses list shows the same number in its Projects column.

Use project-specific assignment when:

• A status is relevant to only one team or workflow.
• You want to keep project status lists short and relevant.
• Different projects use different outcome terminology.

Selected projects with nothing selected cannot be saved. The field reads “Choose at least one project, or this status appears nowhere.” and the save button goes out of reach with “Choose at least one project” on hover.

Changing assignment

You can update project assignment at any time by editing the status. Removing a project from the assignment does not affect historical results that already used the status — those records are preserved. The status simply stops appearing as an option in new result entries for that project.

Interaction with enabled state

Project assignment and the enabled toggle are independent. A status must be both enabled and assigned to the project (or set to apply to all projects) to appear in selection dropdowns for users in that project.
