Reorder group statuses
As a group administrator, you can change the order of project, task, and issue statuses for a group you manage.
If there are any groups above the group you manage, their administrators can also do this for your group. The same is true for Workfront administrators (for any group).
- A Workfront administrator can reorder the statuses at the system level. This does not affect the order of statuses within groups.
- You can reorder locked statuses. For information about locked statuses, see Create or edit a group status.
