Customise your Smart Checklist with custom statuses 🚀

Jira permissions needed: grant users Jira administrators global permissions to manage custom statuses

Custom statuses👇🏻


Manage Statuses

Navigate to Settings → Apps → Smart Checklist → Settings → Statuses

There are 4 default static statuses available in appropriate states:

  • TODO (unchecked)

  • DONE (checked)

  • IN PROGRESS (unchecked)

  • SKIPPED (checked)

You can change the order of default statuses. You can’t change the “State” of default status or color.


Create a new Custom Status

Below the statuses list enter a new status Name, choose color, state, and click “Add new status”.

The name of the custom status is limited to 50 characters.

NOTE: You can’t rename custom status once it’s added. You’ll need to remove the status
and add a new one 🙃


Remove status

To remove a custom status - click the “Trash bin” icon near the status state.

If no checklist items are assigned to that status - it’ll be removed immediately.

If some checklist items contain that status - you’ll receive a warning:

Once confirmed - status will be removed from the statuses list and all checklist items will be reassigned to the default statuses based on the following rule:

  • if the removed status had a “Checked” state - checklist items will be set to “Done” status,

  • if the removed status had an “Unchecked” state - checklist items will be set to “To Do” status.

NOTE: Default statuses cannot be removed


Reorder status

Drag&Drop the status row to reorder statuses in the way how you’d like them to be represented in the checklist UI.


Change status in Smart Checklist UI:

Statuses are shown as a dropdown in the right column of checklist items:

Custom status in RAW text format:

Custom statuses are represented as [statusname] following the state sign.

You Type

You Get

- [IN REVIEW] IN REVIEW item with Unchecked state
- [CUSTOM STATUS] CUSTOM STATUS item with Unchecked state
- [FAILED] FAILED item with Checked state

You are all set! Hope everything works for you! 💪🏻
