Create a custom workflow
Design your own stages, colors, and customer-facing messages when no preset fits.
Requires Location Admin (business-shared workflows need a Business Admin)
Create one
- Open Settings → Queue workflow and use the custom-workflow option to create a new workflow (you can start from a copy of an existing one).
- In the editor, define each stage: its label, short board label, color, whether it's an active column or an ending, and the message customers see while in it.
- Connect the stages — which moves are allowed forward, backward, and to endings.
- Save, then select your new workflow as the location's active one.
Business-shared workflows
A Business Admin can create workflows at the business level (Business settings in your business console) and set a default workflow for new locations, so every branch runs the same stages. Deleting a workflow that locations use safely reverts them to the general flow.
Tips
- Fewer stages beat more stages — each column is something staff must actively move tickets through.
- Write customer messages in your own voice; they show on the live status page at each stage.
