[@FreeQuick]

Amazing thanks!

[@haroonbinimran]

That was really helpful jeff, Thanks but how do we add total time in status field? and can you show all of your favorite views and why you made them

[@TheMerryBeggars]

I'm confused - you guys suggest not using custom statuses in your PDF guide, but here you have a bunch. Have you guys changed your thinking on them?

[@ZenPilot]

This video discusses the biggest mistakes and using a ton of different statuses is one of the biggest mistakes. We recommend having a status template with different statuses, but this should be consistent across the workspace.

[@TheMerryBeggars]

@@ZenPilot got it - this is helpful! So you're not against having multiple statuses (beyond "to do" and "complete") but you're just saying that they should be consistent across the workspace and as simple as possible? (While still accomplishing their purpose)

[@ZenPilot]

@@TheMerryBeggars Yes, exactly!

How to exclude process library tasks from being shown in „Everything“ views?

[@ZenPilot]

You can use filters for this. You can choose to not show the process library tasks. Just navigate to your view, select the filters, and choose "Location/List" is not "Process Library".
