As a method of tailoring Jim2 to suit business practices, statuses can be added and defined. Jim2 is supplied with predefined statuses that can be used or edited but not renamed or deleted, however the company workflow may already use familiar terms or particular processes that can be used to define statuses.
To add a new status, follow these steps:
1.On the ribbon, go to Tools > Status.
2.The Status grid will appear.
3.Go to the tab where this new status is to be applied (Sales Job, Service Job, etc.).
4.Click Add at the bottom of the screen.
5.Jim2 will automatically default the new status to In Object and In List and to be set as Active. The cursor will be placed in the Status field. Enter the name of this new status, noting that there is a 10 character limit.
6.Tab to the Responsibility field. Enter an appropriate name for the person, or persons responsible for this new status, ie. Technicians, Everyone, etc.
7.Tab to the Comment field. Enter a comment describing what this new status will indicate within the workflow.
8.Click Save.

The In Use checkbox is display only, and will not be ticked until the newly created status is actually used within Jim2.
