Status columns allow you to add customizable dropdown fields to your SalesBoards and JobBoards.
You can use them to track workflows, priorities, production stages, assignments, or any other predefined list of options your team needs to select from.
Add a Status Column
To add a Status column to a board:
Hover over any board header and click the + icon.
Select Status from the available column types.
A new Status column will be added to the board.
Click the column title to rename it if required.
By default, new Status columns include the following values:

These can be fully customized to suit your workflow.

You can customize:

Statuses can be reordered by dragging and dropping them into the desired position.
Customize Status Colors
Each status includes a color indicator that helps make information easier to identify at a glance.
Click the color selector beside any status to:
Choose from the predefined color palette
Enter a custom hex color code
This can be useful for matching internal workflows or company branding.
š” Pro Tip: Use Status Columns as Labels
Despite the name, Status columns don't have to represent a workflow.
Many teams use them as simple dropdown labels to categorize records and capture consistent information across their boards.
For example, a production team might create a Printing Machine column with options such as:
12 Colour Automatic
6 Colour Manual
Kornit DTG Machine
Large Format Printer
An embroidery department could create an Embroidery Machine column containing:
10 Head Tajima
6 Head Tajima
Single Head Machine
You can also use Status columns to categorize products, artwork, or designs. For example, a Design column might contain:
Palm Trees Design
Waves Design
Sunset Design
Vintage Surf Logo
Other common examples include:
Production Method
Artwork Status
Department
Installer Assignment
Warehouse Location
Supplier
Priority
Because Status columns function as a controlled dropdown list, they provide a simple way to standardize information, improve filtering, and create more organized board views across your business.
