How status field in release is auto updated in DPR ?

[kkcommunity]

Hello,

We are going to use Digital product review DPR module with out any integrations initially to track certain tasks to be completed before go live, question is how status field is auto updating as "green", "Amber","Red" ? Ex: i have 5 tasks to be completed before go live say 30 days from now, On what basis status field will be auto updated? Also is it possible to change rules for status field updates?

Hello Buddy!,

The Green / Amber / Red status is calculated automatically based on the go-live date and the status of the review tasks, not on integrations. DPR continuously looks at how many tasks are complete, how many are still open, and how much time is left before go-live.

At a high level:

• Green means the required tasks are completed or still on track to be completed before the go-live date.

• Amber means there are open tasks and you’re getting closer to go-live, so there’s some risk.

• Red means one or more required tasks are overdue or the timeline has effectively been breached.

In your example, if you have 5 tasks and the go-live date is 30 days away, the status will stay Green as long as tasks are progressing and not overdue. As the go-live date gets closer with tasks still open, it will shift to Amber, and if tasks become overdue or the deadline is missed, it will turn Red.

Out of the box, the rules that drive this status are not configurable through settings. They’re calculated by DPR’s internal logic (server-side rules). You can technically customize that logic, but it’s not recommended because it can impact upgrades and standard reporting.

I recommend to leave the DPR status as-is and, if needed, add your own custom indicators or reports alongside it to reflect any organization-specific rules.

Hope this helps clarify how the status is being determined.
