Custom Statuses of Story Workflow

[Florian]

Hi 

I am evaluating the TeamPulse application. I was triying to add statuses to a story ("Verify"). That worked I did add it into the Advanced Settings.
My Problem now ist that the Storyboard does not show up that status.
Is it possible to get the new status show up?

Here the pece of xml that i did edit:

<EntityDefinition EntityTypeName="Story">
      <Workflow>
        <Statuses>
          <string>New</string>
          <string>Approved</string>
          <string>Committed</string>
          <string>Verify</string>
          <string>Done</string>
          <string>Removed</string>
        </Statuses>
        <Transitions>
          <Transition From="" To="New" />
          <Transition From="New" To="Approved" />
          <Transition From="New" To="Removed" />
          <Transition From="Approved" To="Committed" />
          <Transition From="Approved" To="Removed" />
          <Transition From="Committed" To="Verify" />
          <Transition From="Committed" To="Approved" />
          <Transition From="Verify" To="Done" />
          <Transition From="Verify" To="Committed" />
          <Transition From="Done" To="Committed" />
          <Transition From="Removed" To="New" />
        </Transitions>
        <UnexecutedStatuses>New,Approved</UnexecutedStatuses>
        <InProgressStatuses>Committed</InProgressStatuses>
        <DoneStatuses>Done</DoneStatuses>
        <ExcludedStatuses>Removed</ExcludedStatuses>
      </Workflow>

Hi Florian,

 In order to show your new status in the Storyboard, you will need to add it to the StoryBoardStatusList in the Advanced Settings.

<StoryBoardStatusList>
   <string>New</string>
   <string>Approved</string>
   <string>Committed</string>
   <string>Verify</string>
   <string>Done</string>
 </StoryBoardStatusList>

Enjoy exploring TeamPulse and do not hesitate to contact us again if you have any questions.

Can I map multiple Story status values into a single story board column? By example, we have a couple of status values ('Assinged' & 'Review') that we would like to see under a single Story Board Column 'Active', make sense ?
Cheers

Hello Tony,

 It is not possible to show multiple statuses in one column in TeamPulse story or task boards. Both story and task boards allow you to drag and drop cards and this way you can change the items status or even reassign it to another user. You can check documentation for storyboard and taskboard here and here.

 However, if you wish to distinguish different status groups we have divided all statuses for an entity type in four groups: Unexecuted, InProgress, Done and Excluded. By default we do not show items with statuses in the excluded group on the story and task boards. Will it make sense for you if we make status lanes for statuses in different status groups with different colors?

 Looking forward to hearing from you.
