Hi Umar,

You can try the Automation as shown in the attachment.

Just replace the name of user and name of status as per your requirement.

Hi Umar,

Yes, that user should have the ability to do that if they click the blue Create button in the top navigation bar. They should be able to change the Status in the Create screen to the To Do status at create time.
