During the planning process, you will encounter different plan statuses.
Below is the description of each status.

• New – a new plan. A status visible only to the analyst after the system calculation.

• Assign – assigned for distribution. The status with which plans are transferred from the analyst to FFM, from FFM to PM, and appear in the Inbox section. This status remains until approval, even if changes have been saved.

• Approved – the 1st stage of approval. Approved and sent “down” the hierarchy for further distribution. With this status, plans appear in the Sent section.
  When the FFM approves a plan at their level and “cascades” it down the hierarchy, their plan receives the Approved status, while the PMs receive their plans with the Assign status.

• Validated – the 2nd stage of approval. Approved and sent “up” the hierarchy for further validation.
  When a PM has completed work on the plans and has approved them twice, their plan receives the Validated status.
  When an FFM receives validated plans from RMs, approves the plan at their level, and sends it “up” to the analyst, their plan also receives the Validated status.

• Finalized – the status indicating that a manager or an employee higher in the hierarchy has approved the plan at their level.
  When an FFM validates the plan at their level – PMs see their plans with the Finalized status.
  When the Analyst validates the plan at their level – FFMs and RMs see their plans with the Finalized status.
