Two states for column 'Done' on the board - but only for some tickets!

Korbinian Winhart June 24, 2019

We're using a Kanban Board. When I drag a US to the 'Done' column, for some of them I have two options, 'Done' and 'Finished'. Others do not have that option. I prefer the latter.

I cannot see the reason why. All US on that board share the same project, workflow (see below), type etc. There is only one status associated with that column in the Board-settings.

What else could I check?

Ok, that's good.

This is strange if you only have one workflow in your project,  I believe that this can be the result of that you have the transition -all configured on status done.   

possible Done is the status, and finished is a transition?

Korbinian Winhart June 24, 2019

Yes! That's it.

Also explains why the the 'Status' 'finished' (which is a transition) only shows up for some tasks. It's not a question of task, but a question of which status the task has and therefore which transition can be used.

Thanks a lot!

Hello,

I believe that you mapped two statuses to the Done column. If you need just one status, then map only one status to the column. You can change the mapping in Board settings -> Columns

Hello, thanks for your answer.

As stated above, there is only one status associated/mapped to that column in the Board-settings/configuration.

Plus there is no status called 'Finished' in the used workflow (the screenshot of the workflow was specifically taken from the the ticket that shows that behaviour).
