After having created the customer statuses in the admin tab, go back to the index tab, as pictured above. 
 
Click the «status» button on the top right-hand side.

3.0.1 In the pop-up window, select section 1 and status published. 

3.0.2 Click the «close» button and the «save» button on the bottom left. 

3.1 Report Index

All documents in this module that are completed and approved/published will have the status of Published, as seen in the example image to the right. A new document which has not been approved or is not yet finished will have the status of New, which is set as default.

4.0 Set status in documents with several sections

Some documents, such as the NCR document is made up of several sections or steps, which have to be sent and approved. 

In order to set a custom status for each section/step, you have to follow the same procedure as in steps 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 in this guide. But you also need to repeat the steps for each section/step before saving your document.

So, if you want to set a custom document status for an NCR document:  

Section 1 status is set when the 1 section is approved, and you work in section 2.

Section 2 Status is set when the 2 section is approved, and you work in section 3.

Section 3 Status is final status when the document is Closed fully.

When in section 1, the status will be New by default.

I will recommend the statuses as this:

1 = Processing / Under behandling

2 = In Verification / Under verifisering

3 = Closed / Lukket
