That doesn't mention anything about having statuses just for the project manager component, just some talk about a series of statuses.

Why is there a need for different statuses than the main ones?

It would be a lot better to have a single set for any task management application based on OFBiz, especially one that is part of the project... hopefully we can avoid fragmentation at least at that level!

Ideally any project/task/etc management application based on OFBiz could run with data from another such application.

Just so you know, we're working on a fairly custom small set of screens (like 5-6 screens) for our use at Hotwax, and we're ending up avoiding much of what is in the project manager specialpurpose app in order to use the more "standard" patterns in the workeffort component. There have been various questions and discussions around this on the mailing lists, and a few commits from me recently to flesh out the data model to add little things that we ran into that didn't exist.

Hi Adrian,

the difference is as I already mentioned in the component selection

the projectmanagement has 2 selections which are project management
specific:
<field-map field-name="workEffortTypeId" value="TASK"/>
<field-map field-name="currentStatusId" value="PTS_CREATED"/>

these status and type were specifically created for the projectmanager
and are not used for selection in the workeffort manager.

I would be quite interested in hearing why this was done...
