In the Standard and Professional Editions, a project can have either of two statuses:
Open or Closed. To set the status, change the Status field in Project Setup.
With Enterprise Management Server, a project can have any of nine statuses: Open,
Analyzing, Packaging, Validating, Testing, Deconflicting, Complete, Closed, and On Hold.
Use the ones that meet your corporate standards. To set the project status:
Select a status in the Project Management tab in Workbench, or
Complete a task that has a status entered in the Update project status upon
task completion to field in Process Templates Setup, or

Use the project status to filter projects in the Active Project list in Workbench. You set
the filter criteria in Workbench Preferences.
Package Status

Indicates the state of packages in the Software Manager database. Use the package
status to determine whether a package can be deployed to end users.
A package can have any of three statuses: Under Development, Available, or Retired. To
set the package status, either change the Status field in the Software Manager Package

status automatically.
