Create a Workflow to assign to jobs. Workflows contain Stages, and Stages contain Steps. When jobs are assigned to a Workflow, they are able to move through a custom set of Stages and Steps to help you know where that job is at in its production and fulfillment process. You can see the Workflows you create within the Job Board (found within the Boards section and within the Job Board tab in Orders).
