Definition

An object (order, project, ...) can have several statuses at the same time. However, only one of the statuses may have a status number. If another status with a status number is activated, the old status with a status number is deactivated. This is only valid under certain conditions. The system makes a note of the status with the highest status number that has been reached up to the present. The "lowest number" of this status number determines which status number a new status must have.

Examples

Status A has status number 30 and the 'lowest status number' 10. Status B has status number 40 and the 'lowest status number' 20.

  • Once status B was active for the object, only statuses with numbers 20 or higher may be activated, even if status A is currently active.
  • However, if status B has never been active, statuses with status numbers 10 or higher may be activated if status A is currently active.
