The Status Aliases window provides the administrator with the opportunity to define status aliases that are available to all users. A status alias provides you with the ability to define custom statuses that can show up in the status field of the table. When the alias is created, any user can access it from the controls on the control panel, right clicking on the status table, from the Action menu, or by right clicking the system tray icon. To manage the status aliases, click on "Manage Status Aliases" under the "Admin Controls" menu. There is no limit to how many status aliases can be created. These status aliases will be available to all users. Just double click an alias in the table to edit it or select Add New Status Alias from the toolbar to add a new alias. To delete an alias, select the alias and click on the delete button in the menu or toolbar.

| ▪ | Select the built-in status you want the alias associated with. Although the name of the alias will appear in the status field of the table, the system will treat the alias as if it was the built-in status that it is associated with. This association allows for color-coding and other built-in features to understand how to handle a status alias. |
