# Tracking work with custom statuses
<a name="issues-customize-statuses"></a>

You can add custom statuses on your board. Each custom status must belong to one of the following categories: **Draft**, **Not started**, **Started**, or **Completed**. Status categories are used to help organize statuses and populate default views. For more information about statuses and status categories, see [Status and status categories](issues-concepts.md#issues-concepts-status-definition) and for more information about views, see [Finding and viewing issues](issues-view.md).
