I agree that adding notes is not a prominent solution. since the notes section has to be done by several clicks on an individual project. Whereas if you had the ability to add statuses then in one screen you could see what is or is not completed fully. 
Example:
As we are transporters we deliver across the USA/Canada. When a delivery is done, I would like to note it is delivered. The bill is not completed and there may be a second delivery waiting to be completed to complete the entire order. 
Statuses are:
"Not Started" - future delivery - scheduled out.
"In Progress" - product is on the way to destination.
"Completed" - Paid and all items evaluated.
"Canceled" - Delivery canceled prior to leaving the yard.

which we use all of them. However, we also need:
"Damaged" - which means waiting on evaluation.
"Delivered" - which is waiting on second delivery or payment.

I am a fair person and believe in doing something for a year before making a decision on a product. At $80 a month I have found QuickBooks lacking the ability to satisfy my accounting needs.

And yes I will post this in the feedback section just to say something to no one!
