First off, thank you for being so responsive and I am excited to read your responses to my other posts! 
In this post, I am wondering how you can edit what a step moves the Workflow Status from after the step is already established. It’s not that I want to change it to another one in the dropdown of all existing Workflow Statuses - I would like to be able to type in a new one.
Hi @Rachel mechanically, there is a way to do this, but we want to dissuade users from discovering and using this except as a means to fix up something that is broken.
First, the means to do it — you edit the Status column properties (from the column header in the tabular view, or from the structure view in the plan tab), and that lets you add or remove status values.
That said, these statuses are very closely tied to the steps of the flow. If they get out of whack in name or order (the order of the status values should map to the order of the steps of the flow), then you’ll get strange execution errors.
This is one of those “try at your own peril” kind of things
Hi Praveen - will this be fixed so that you can edit the words of the Status safely? I was looking for some functionality where changing it somewhere would make it naturally update in all the places it would need to update.
Unfortunately, this isn’t an easy thing to change, the way our system is implemented. So we have to figure out how to do this without being destabilizing.
We like to make fixes to things quickly once an issues is pointed out, but this is one of those changes that we probably cannot do in the immediate term.
