Change the status of a component based on its activities’ statuses

The status of a component automatically changes when all the activities contained in it have the same status.

For example: If your component has 3 activities and we change the status of all of them from Plan to Active, also the status of the component in which they are contained will change to Active.

It is possible to differentiate the status of a component by its icon in the project tree.

The project tree can be filtered to hide the components with the following statuses: Done, Cancelled and Blocked. To do so, you can activate or deactivate the filter by clicking on the respective icon.
