Program Milestones

These features are only available in SpiraPlan

Statuses

The following screen is displayed when you choose the "Statuses" link from the Program Milestones section of the system administration menu:

The screen displays a list of all the defined statuses in the system. By default, it displays only the active statuses. Display all statuses (active and inactive) by selecting "All" from the "Displaying" dropdown.

To edit an existing status: change the name, open check-box, set a default status, a position, and/or change the active flag then click "Save". Note that:

  • The open flag is used to set whether a program milestone is open or closed
  • The position field determines the order of the statuses
  • You can't delete an existing status, but to prevent it appearing in the application, change its active flag to "No" and click "Save"
  • To add a new status, click the "Add" button and a new row will be added to the list which you can now edit.
  • The default radio button allows you to specify which type should be the default for newly created items
  • You must have at least one active status, and you cannot set an inactive status as the default.
