# Update Status

Apps -> \<App> -> Events & actions -> Update status

The **Update Status** action in **Appverse** allows users to modify the status of a record based on predefined conditions. This action ensures that records move through different stages systematically, reflecting their current progress in the workflow.

In Appverse,&#x20;

* Status changes can be configured to occur only when specific conditions are met (e.g., an order is marked as "Shipped" only if the shipment related details are filled).
* A status can be designated as the **default status**, meaning it will be applied when none of the specified conditions are met.

**By default, update status it is disabled.**

### Few Examples

* **Approval Workflow:** A submitted leave request moves from **"Submitted"** to **"Approved or Rejected"** only after manager action.
* **Ticketing System:** A support ticket status updates from **"Open"** to **"Resolved"** when a resolution is provided.
