Add a customized status

It is possible to create a new own status in the drop-down list under Conditions. You can freely choose what should be the name and color of the status, it could be e.g. "Approved for Department X", or "Stopped for new purchases" or whatever would suit you best.

If you would like to add a new customized status, please follow these steps: 

1. Decide which color the status should have (red, green or yellow)
2. Decide which language(s) the status should be in. If your company uses mostly English as the corporate language you can add the phrase only in English but we can also add translations based om system language if you would prefer that.
3. Send a request to support@intersolia.com with a description of what you want to create based on what you decided in steps 1 and 2.
