What the Status classification is for
Every request status belongs to a classification — the phase of the flow it sits in: Triage, In progress, Waiting, Done or Cancelled. The classification decides which Kanban section the status appears in and how Tenka reads the progress of the request. This screen is where you see the company’s classifications, change name, color and order, and create your own.

How to

How to create a classification
Tap New, give it a name (for example, In validation) and, if you like, pick a color. When you save, the classification gets its own code, taken from the name, which does not change afterwards: it is what the status stores internally. Screens, the Kanban and Tenkai answers always show the name. The new classification then appears in the choices of the Status classification field. To make it a Kanban section, open a request status and choose this classification in it.

Rules

The five system ones stay
Triage, In progress, Waiting, Done and Cancelled come ready in every company and cannot be deleted or deactivated: Tenka uses these five to decide things like moving the request when the timer starts. You can change their name, color and order. A classification that still has statuses cannot be removed either: change the classification of those statuses first.

Frequently asked questions

Why doesn’t my classification show up as a Kanban section?
A section only shows up when there is at least one active status in that classification — and, if the board is filtered by a workflow, at least one from that workflow. Open the status and check the Classification field. Also check that the classification is active and that the section was not hidden in the Kanban preferences.
I renamed a system classification: what happens to the statuses?
Nothing changes in the statuses: they store the classification code, which does not change, not the name. Only the section title on the Kanban, the label on screens and Tenkai answers start showing the new name.
What changed compared to the old status Category?
The Status category field is now called Classification and is no longer a fixed list of five values: it comes from this screen. Existing statuses keep the same classification, with nothing to redo. In spreadsheet import, the column accepts the name (In progress) or the code (EM_EXECUCAO), and the old Category header still works.
Classification, phase and status: which is which?
The status is the situation of the request, for example In testing or Waiting for customer. The classification is the phase of the flow that status fits into (Triage, In progress, Waiting, Finished, Cancelled or one you created) and defines the Kanban section. Phase is just a way to explain the classification: on screens, the name is always Classification.
