Customising pipeline stages per job

Sometimes a job needs a slightly different process than your standard pipeline template. Kabuna lets you customise the stages for any individual job without affecting the template or other jobs.

Customise stages when creating a job

1. Create a new job and choose a pipeline template.
2. After selecting the template, you’ll see the list of stages it includes.
3. Make your changes:
   • Add a stage — click the add button and type a name (e.g. “Take-home Test”).
   • Remove a stage — click the delete icon next to a stage you don’t need.
   • Rename a stage — click on the stage name and edit it.
   • Reorder stages — drag stages up or down to change the order.
4. Save the job. Your customised stages apply only to this job.

Customise stages on an existing job

1. Open the job from the Jobs page.
2. Go to the job’s settings or edit view.
3. Find the Pipeline Stages section.
4. Add, remove, rename, or reorder stages as needed.
5. Save your changes.

What happens to existing candidates

When you change stages on a job that already has candidates:

• Candidates stay in their current stage. Nothing moves automatically.
• If you remove a stage that has candidates in it, you’ll be asked to move those candidates to a different stage first.
• Adding new stages doesn’t affect candidates already in the pipeline — they stay where they are.

Good to know

• Per-job changes never affect the original pipeline template. The template stays as-is for other jobs.
• If you want to change the default stages for all future jobs, edit the template in Settings > Pipelines instead.
