Work Order Status

Each work order has its own status determining where it is in the processing cycle. Just like order status depends on statuses of its underlying work orders, work order status depends on statuses of its tasks:

Task Statuses — roll up to → Work Order Status — roll up to → Order Status

(bearing in mind that a work order does not necessarily need a parent order).
