Project tags
Project tags organize your projects by category, similar to hashtags. You can apply one or more tags to a project from the project sidebar.
Project statuses
Project statuses organize your projects by phases or milestones of working together. Click on a status to see a filtered list of the projects with that particular status only.
Statuses are categorized into Leads, Jobs, Combined, and Archived:
Leads: Projects that are still in the initial stages of inquiring and booking with you. A project is usually considered a lead until you have a signed contract or a payment.
Jobs: Projects that you considered to be booked.
Combined: See all projects with any status.
Archived: Cold leads or past jobs that you no longer want in one of the other categories. Learn more about archiving projects.
