Card State

DocBoss maintains a state for every locked card. Cards become locked if ANY of the following actions have been performed:

  • The card has been submitted to the customer (tracked separately also)
  • A system generated INDEX has been submitted to the customer
  • A user has manually locked the cards by clicking on the lock icon beside the project name

Below is a list of the default values. This list is configurable by going to the setup / card state grid on the project, you can also set state values on the Companies.

NOTE: The description column defines specific system actions/occurrences. They are not editable. The state value column is editable. Also – you MAY use the same state for multiple lines if you do not want to track the distinction.
