Applying a Custom Workflow To a Task, Project, or Folder
All users except collaborators on Business and Enterprise accounts can apply account-wide custom workflows to tasks, projects, folders, and custom items.
Space workflows can only be applied to the tasks, folders, projects, and custom items located in the corresponding space.
When you apply a workflow to a folder or project, new tasks created in that folder or project are automatically assigned the first status from the workflow’s active group.
