Operation Statuses

Operation statuses are used by default to track the lifecycle of tickets individually.

Every Status belongs to a Class, a simpler logical grouping.
The default classes for Deepser states are the following:

ClassMeaning
OpenStatuses that belong to this class indicate that the request has not been resolved and has yet to be processed.
ClosedStatuses that belong to this class indicate that the request has been resolved, therefore the processing is finished.
