Which of the following is a use case for the status column?

• A. Display if a task is completed, being worked on, or needs attention
• B. Filter by due date
• C. Auto-assign items
• D. Sort by priority

Answer: (A)

The status column is a quick, visual indicator of where a task stands. Its primary use is to show the current state of each item—such as completed, in progress, or needs attention—so you can scan a board and grasp overall progress at a glance. This makes it easy to spot which tasks are done, which are moving forward, and which require intervention.

Other options don’t fit as a use case for this column because they rely on different field types: due date is tracked with a date field, not status; auto-assigning items is handled by automation rules or the assignee field; and sorting by priority uses a separate priority indicator.
