Created, approved, started - the project status shows you the status of your projects at a glance. In this tip and trick, we show you how the two coloured dots in Vanillaplan help you get a quicker overview.

In the list of your projects - both in the project view and in the capacity plan - you will now see two coloured dots on the left-hand side. The one on the left shows you the status of the project, the one on the right the status of the project phase.

The colour of the dots immediately shows you the status of the project or the individual project phase:

⚪️ Project created

🔵 Project planned

🟢 Project started

🔷 Project approved

🟡 Project stopped

🟠 Project completed

🔴 Project rejected

Simply click on the dots to change the status.

Have fun trying it out!
