Checklist comes with a set of built-in statuses that items can be set to. Available statuses are:

N/AIndicates that the item is not applicable. Setting the N/A status checks the item as marked.
In ProgressIndicates that work is being done to resolve the item. Setting the status to In Progress removes the check mark if it is present. Setting the item as Completed also removes the In Progress status.
BlockedIndicates that blockers prevent the item from being completed. Setting the status to Blocked removes the check mark if it was present. Setting the item as Completed also removes the Blocked status.

Statuses are modifiable

The predefined statuses are added when you initially install the add-on. However, the list of statuses can modified, including the predefined ones, from the Statuses Page in the admin section.
