Is there a difference between task status and job status?
Yes, task status is independent of the job’s production or billing status, but uses the same codes from the Status Table. You can use them any way that makes sense and seems useful. They don’t have the same intelligence as job status codes (for example, they don’t trigger e-mail notifications or prevent people from working on tasks). You can use task status for tasks that require special attention or a quick turnaround. For example, if a scheduling report is limited to a certain task status, like RUSH, then it identifies only those tasks with the RUSH status. Other tasks may fall within the due date range you enter, but because they aren’t marked as RUSH, they don’t print on the report.
