How to add custom status/states to camunda

Hello
is there any way to maintain the External status to the tasks and process in camunda

e.g. Order review process,

  • First order will be reviewed(user-task)
  • Then for reviewed orders will be sent for approval(user-task)

so here as as per our requirements we need to maintain the custom Status like In-process/Reviewing/Approved/Confirmed/Closed etc.
is there any workaround to maintain the status like this while creating the BPMN diagram?

Hi @asperitas_ltd

We did it in our project by using a service task and persisting status in the tables that we had made in mySQL database.
