Overview

Every Task in CUBE has a status that reflects where it stands in the workflow. Statuses help team members and project managers track progress at a glance — without needing to open each task individually. You can update a Task's status directly from the Task's Properties panel at any time.

CUBE provides three built-in Task statuses:

• Open — the Task has been created and is awaiting action or is actively in progress.
• In-Review — the Task has been completed by the assignee and is awaiting review or sign-off by another team member.
• Closed — the Task has been reviewed, approved, and is no longer active.

Prerequisites

• You must have access to the project and the Space containing the Task.
• You must have sufficient permissions to edit Tasks in that Space (typically Editor level or above).

Changing the Status of a Task

1. Open the Project and navigate to the Tasks module.
2. Locate the Task whose status you want to change. You can use the list view, filters, or search to find it.
3. Click on the Task to open it, then open the Properties panel (typically accessible from the task detail view or by clicking the Properties icon).
4. In the Properties panel, locate the Status field.
5. Click the Status field and select the new status from the dropdown — Open, In-Review, or Closed.
6. The status updates immediately and is visible to all users with access to the Task.

When to Use Each Status

Open is the default state when a Task is created. Use it for tasks that are newly assigned, in progress, or require further action before they can be reviewed.

In-Review signals that the assignee considers the work done and the Task is ready for someone else to check. This is useful for maintaining accountability — the assignee marks it In-Review, and a reviewer or project manager takes the final action to close it.
