Understanding event statuses

What each event status means and how statuses change as work progresses.

Every event in Vantage has a status that tells you where it stands in the workflow. Statuses are color-coded so you can quickly identify them on the event list and calendar.

Event statuses

Status

Color

Description

Not Assigned

Red

The event has no assignees and no scheduled dates yet.

Assigned

Orange

Team members or vendors have been assigned, but the event's dates have not come yet.

Active

Green

The event has assignees and today falls within the event's scheduled dates. Work is in progress.

Awaiting Approval

Blue

The assignee has submitted the completion report and the event is waiting for a manager to review it.

Completed

Purple

The event has been approved and finalized by a manager.

Completed with Issues

Purple

The event was approved but issues were logged during execution.

Not Completed

Purple

The event was closed without being finished. Depending on your settings, you may be able to schedule a revisit.

How statuses change

Vantage updates the event status automatically based on what happens:

  • Adding assignees moves the event from Not Assigned to Assigned.

  • When today's date is within the event's date range and assignees are present, the status moves to Active.

  • Submitting the completion report moves the event to Awaiting Approval.

  • Approving or rejecting the event sets the final status: Completed, Completed with Issues, or Not Completed.

Once an event reaches Completed, Completed with Issues, or Not Completed, its status cannot be changed. You can still update event details to keep your records accurate.

Completed and Not Completed events are hidden from the event list by default. Adjust your filters to include them if you need to see past work.

FAQ

Why can I not see completed events on my list?

Events in Completed and Not Completed statuses are hidden by default. To see them, add a status filter to your saved view that includes these statuses.

Can I move an event back to a previous status?

No. Statuses move forward automatically based on assignees, dates, and the completion workflow. Once an event reaches Completed, Completed with Issues, or Not Completed, its status is final.

What is the difference between Completed and Completed with Issues?

Completed means the work was finished without problems. Completed with Issues means the event was approved but issues were logged during execution, giving your team a record for follow-up.

Can I filter my event list by status?

Yes. You can add a status filter on the Events page to show only the statuses you need. You can also save that filter as a saved view for quick access.
