Is it possible to add a new status to Projects?_

Once again QB Support provides an answer that does not resolve the actual issue, nor does it make adequate sense from an accounting aspect. The solution here for Intuit is to be able to mark projects as complete, but NOT removing them as viewable customers/projects when attempting to enter future items would be helpful, because that's really the issue here. Removing Completed projects from certain reports or filtering is nice, but removing them from view altogether is not.

I hear your sentiments, @2rsDigital1. I'm here to share some details about managing the status of projects in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

In this case, I'd suggest sending feedback to our product developers for this option in QBO to help improve your experience.

Here's how:
 

1. Go to the Gear icon.
2. Choose Feedback.
3. Enter your comments or product suggestions.
4. Then, click Next to submit feedback.

You can visit our QuickBooks Online Feature Requests website to track the status of your submitted feedback.

I agree that adding notes is not a prominent solution. since the notes section has to be done by several clicks on an individual project. Whereas if you had the ability to add statuses then in one screen you could see what is or is not completed fully. 
Example:
As we are transporters we deliver across the USA/Canada. When a delivery is done, I would like to note it is delivered. The bill is not completed and there may be a second delivery waiting to be completed to complete the entire order. 
Statuses are:
"Not Started" - future delivery - scheduled out.
"In Progress" - product is on the way to destination.
"Completed" - Paid and all items evaluated.
"Canceled" - Delivery canceled prior to leaving the yard.

which we use all of them. However, we also need:
"Damaged" - which means waiting on evaluation.
"Delivered" - which is waiting on second delivery or payment.

I am a fair person and believe in doing something for a year before making a decision on a product. At $80 a month I have found QuickBooks lacking the ability to satisfy my accounting needs.

And yes I will post this in the feedback section just to say something to no one!

We would like the flexibility to modify the status of projects also. We are a construction company and have more than just three project statuses.

Hi there, But Why.

Having greater control over customizing project statuses can be beneficial to you and your business. However, the option to do so is currently unavailable in QuickBooks Online. To address this, I suggest submitting a product suggestion through the Feedback section. Below, I'll outline the steps you can take to do this.

1. Click on the Gear icon at the top right.
2. Select Feedback.
3. Type your comments or product suggestions.
4. Click Next to submit your feedback.
