Rally Status Sync
If your session is synced with Rally, also the status will be synced.
piplanning.io pulls in the existing states of every workflow used for mapped work items.
As portfolio-item states are not mapped to a schedule state (status category) they are not mapped to a piplanning app status category color and shown as empty.
Examples
Feature on program level
States of a portfolio-item in Rally
