Status Maintenance
The Status Maintenance hyperlink in the Matter Maintenance sidebar allows site administrators and super users to add, reorder, or retire statuses for all matter records in your Lawtrac database.
Creating and editing categories changes the label wherever it is used in the application. This process generally takes eight hours to complete; however, the query cache can be cleared through the ColdFusion Administration settings if the client needs to see the results immediately.
