# Task Physical Statuses

A task's physical status is the Current and Forward status displayed on the Tasks Outstanding window. You cannot create new status titles, but you can rename them.

### Renaming Task Physical Statuses

1. Select ≡ > **Admin** > **System Administration**. The System Administration window appears. In the Explorer pane, expand **Workflow Management**.
2. Select the **Task Physical Statuses** option. The **Task Physical Statuses** window appears. The **Title** column displays the system-defined names and the **Name** column shows Admin assigned names. You can adjust the column widths if required.
3. In the **Name** column, select the name you want to change and type the new name you want to use.
4. Select to save the changes. Provide the Change Reasons if prompted to do so.
