Add a status to vireo

[nicksjunkyard]

My graduate school wants to add a submission status to the list. I am tempted to add one to the database table for something like "Approved - Needs ADA Compliance"

We are generating a report off of the vireo database and send it to the registrars office. The registrar marks them for graduation in degree works and all that stuff. This will also tell me not to send the submission to DSpace or ProQuest.

Will creating the status in the database cause problems in the future or break the system? I could also just add it to the config file SYSTEM_Submission_Status.json and see how that works.

Thank you,
Nick

You should be able to add a new status using the json file. To my knowledge, it should not create any problems. It will just be another entry in the database and should populate in the status list. I've not tested this myself. If you do try it, please report back with any issues you encounter.
