For this project, I am unable to add an existing status (Prod RFA) which I've confirmed does exist here on the Statuses page under Issue Attributes; I'm also using it on all of my other projects so I'm not sure what the particular issue is with this project. When I try to configure the associated workflow here on the edit screen for this particular project's workflow by clicking 'add status'...'Prod RFA' is not in the drop down so I get stuck there. Please help!
Thank you,
Heather
Hi Heather,
Are you sure that status is not already in the workflow - maybe just not visible? Maybe do a CTRL F to open a search box and type in Prod there to see if it thinks it is on the screen somewhere.
Another option is to go to a board that already uses that workflow and check the columns for the statuses that are available for that workflow.
@John Funk the status (Prod RFA) does actually show as already being in the workflow
However when I go to Board Settings for the project I want to add it to, the 'add status' button is missing so I can't get the 'Prod RFA' status into the 'Prod RFA' column to make it appear on the board. :/

Great! I have forgotten to publish the changed workflows many times. :-)

Hi @Trudy Claspill :
Here is the Statuses Page under Issue Attributes where you can see the status 'Prod RFA' does exist:
And here is the edit screen for my project's workflow where you can see that 'Prod RFA' does not appear in the drop down:

Hello @heather
Have you tried typing Prod into the selection field to see if it brings up the status in the selection list?
