When an Item is reverted to the New status:

  • The Responsible Person and Assigner, if present, will be removed. All other team members will be unaffected by the change.
  • The start and due dates, if present, will be removed. All other dates will be unaffected by the change.

Who can revert an Item to the New status?

  • Anyone with the "Edit" permission for Items in this Location(s).
  • For Items using the Standard Team Type, anyone with the "Assign (Which Items)" permission for Items in this Location(s).

Revert an Item to the New status

To revert an Item to New Status, open the Item you want to work with, then use either of the following methods:

  • From the Item's Status indicator.
    • Select the Item's current Status.
    • Select New from the drop-down menu.
  • From the Actions menu.
    • Select the Actions button at the top-right corner of the Item.
    • Hover over Edit Status, then select New.

Pro Tip: If your organization utilizes Custom Statuses, "New" may be renamed to match your organization's unique terminology.

In the Make New window:

  • Reason for reverting to New: Enter an explanation as to why the Item is being reverted to the New status. This text will be added to the Item as a comment.
  • Click Save. The Item will enter the New status.
