A workflow in OpenProject is defined as the allowed transitions between status for a [role](#role) and a type, i.e. which status changes can a certain role implement depending on the [work package type](#work-package-type). Workflows can be defined in the admin settings. For example, you might only want developers to be able to set the status "developed".

### Work package
|
||||

||||
In OpenProject, a [work package](../user-guide/work-packages/#overview) is defined as an item in a project. It is a subset of a project that can be assigned to users for execution, such as Tasks, Bugs, User Stories, Milestones, and more. Work packages have a [type](#work-package-type), an [ID](#work-package-id) and a [subject](#work-package-subject) and may have additional attributes, such as assignee, responsible, [story points](#story-points) or [version](#versions). Work packages are displayed in a project timeline (unless they are [filtered](#filters) out in the timeline configuration) - either as a milestone or as a [phase](#phase). In order to use the work packages, the work package module has to be activated in the [project settings](#project-settings) by a project admin.
