There are 4 statuses of a job in ServiceM8. They keep track of what stage a job is at:

* **Quote (Q)**: The job either needs to be quoted, or is waiting for the quote to be approved.
* **Work Order (W):** You have received the go ahead from the client for work to start. The job should remain as a Work Order until all physical work is complete.
* **Completed (C):** All work on the job has been completed and the job is ready to be invoiced.
* **Unsuccessful (U):** Either the quote was not accepted or the job has been cancelled.
