Manage issues in your calendar

Unless otherwise noted, the calendar view in software projects is the same for both company-managed and team-managed projects.

To edit an issue, you’ll need the Edit issues permission in the project where the issue was created.

View the status category of an issue by its color

Color helps you visualize the status of issues in your calendar. An issue’s color is based on its status. The colors are categorized by your project's workflow:

  • Gray: To Do

  • Blue: In Progress

  • Green: Done

If an issue on the calendar is red, this means it wasn’t completed before its due date, and is now overdue.
