What you need to know

Every task has a state. The state says whether the task is still to do. It is separate from the stage the task is at: a task can be Active at any stage.

The states

State	What it means	What can change it
Active	Still to do.	Someone finishes it, skips it, or a value it depends on changes.
Done	Finished. Anything waiting on it can go ahead.	Moving it out of its ending stage makes it active again.
Skipped	Someone decided it is not needed for this work, or the cutover set it aside because nothing recorded it. It stays in the plan.	A manager can bring it back with Bring back.
Not applicable	It does not apply, because a value it depends on does not match its test.	A change of value, or a manager's Bring back.
Removed	Taken off the plan. It stays on the record, but the project page does not list it.	It cannot be brought back from the project page.

On a project's page the states look like this:

Which states hold up other work

Only an Active task can hold up a task that waits on it. When it becomes Done, Skipped, Not applicable or Removed, the waiting task can go ahead.

Where you see them

On a project's page, in the State column.
On My Tasks, a card shows its state only once it is finished. Tick Show finished tasks to see those cards.

Why a task becomes not applicable: Why a task is “Not applicable”.
