Which of the following is NOT a bucket status?

• A. Created
• B. Pending
• C. Outstanding
• D. Closed

Answer: (B)

The concept tested is how statuses describe where a work item sits within a workflow bucket. A bucket tracks items as they move through its internal stages, so the statuses reflect that progression inside the bucket. Created means the item has been entered into the bucket and is being tracked. Outstanding indicates active work currently happening on the item within the bucket. Closed shows the work is finished and the item exits the bucket. Pending, however, is typically a waiting state outside the bucket’s internal flow—an item may be awaiting entry or external action before it becomes part of the bucket’s progression. So Pending isn’t a bucket status, making it the correct choice.
