Using status sets for checklists

Status sets are only available for accounts using a paid plan of Checklist for monday.

You must have administrator rights to create, edit, or delete status sets.

Sometimes a checkbox just isn’t enough. For those situations, you can also set a status for each checklist item on your checklist.

By default, you have the Standard set, which contains the statuses Done, Working on it, Stuck, and N/A. You can also create different groups of statuses, called status sets, to use in different checklist views - see Configuring Checklist for monday.

Choosing a status set for a checklist view

Checklists in a newly created board will use the Standard set by default. Want to use a different status set? It’s easy to change it.

When you choose a status set for one checklist view, the set will be applied to the same checklist view for all items in the board.

To choose a status set:

  1. Click the dropdown menu and select Configure checklist view.
