The issues can have the following status and corresponding color:
  1. Black = Active
  2. Red = Active, deadline passed
  3. Blue = Resolved
  4. Grey = Closed


In the Premium an Ultimate plans, you also have access to a workflow which allows you to indicate a user who needs to approve the issue. This results in two additional Issue statuses:
  1. Purple = Resolved, To approve
  2. Blue = Resolved, Approved
