Status Types

There are three different status types that classify your statuses: Open, Custom and Done.

1. Open Statuses

A open status represents something you want to take action on.

By default, you have access to a Status Open which also has the Type Open

2. Custom Statuses

A custom status is something between Open and Done. These can be statuses like In Progress or Do later. If you want to further manage your entries, you can create custom statuses to keep track more granularily.

3. Done Statuses

A done status represents something you have taken care of. This can be a simple completed task or a book you have read (see Tracking List).

By default, you have access to a Status Done which also has the Type Done

Setting an entry's status to Done while it has a duration, and there is no other time tracking running, it will automatically add the duration to your time trackings
