# How do I change the status of my project?

## This article will summarize how to update a project's status to manage its visibility for your team.

#### Overview & Explanation

Managing the status of your project allows you to control exactly what your team sees in the field. By switching a project between **Upcoming**, **Active**, or **Complete**, you ensure that workers are only submitting information for the right jobs at the right time. This keeps your records organized and prevents data from being logged against finished or unstarted work.

#### How It Works (Step-by-Step)

1. **Navigate to Projects:** Click on the **Resources** dropdown menu on the left-side toolbar and select **Projects**.
2. **Select the Project:** Find the project you wish to update from your list and click on it to open the details.
3. **Click the Edit Icon:** Locate the **Pencil Icon** in the top right corner of the screen to unlock the project settings.
4. **Change the Status:** Click the **Status** dropdown menu and choose the appropriate stage:
   
     - **Upcoming:** Use this for jobs that haven't started yet.
     - **Active:** Use this for jobs currently in progress.
     - **Complete:** Use this for finished jobs you want to archive.
5. **Confirm:** Save your changes. If you select **Complete** or **Upcoming**, the project will no longer appear as an option for workers in the mobile app.

#### Use Cases and Benefits

- **Job Preparation:** Set a project to **Upcoming** while you upload documents and set up tasks, ensuring workers don't see it until you are ready for them to start.
- **Cleaning Up the App:** Mark finished jobs as **Complete** so workers don't have to scroll through a long list of old projects to find their current site.
- **Data Integrity:** Prevent workers from accidentally submitting timecards or forms to a job that has already been closed out.
