# Status Systems And Limits
> How library status visibility and storage policy work together in workspace admin.
## Overview
Most workspace policy work in Tessact happens in two places:
* **Library**, where admins decide whether file statuses are visible and which statuses exist
* **Limits**, where admins review storage usage and set capacity controls
These two sections shape how the workspace operates without turning the workspace surface into a heavy policy console.
***
## Library Policy
Use the **Library** tab when you need to control:
* whether file status is visible in the workspace
* how many status types exist
* the order, naming, and default behavior of those statuses
***
## Capacity Policy
Use the **Limits** tab when you need to control:
* whether the workspace is capped or unlimited
* the current storage limit in GB
* whether usage is approaching a point that needs review
***
## Why These Policies Belong Together
Status systems shape how work is tracked. Storage policy shapes how much work can accumulate. Reviewing both together helps admins answer a practical question:
Is this workspace designed clearly enough for how much work it is expected to carry?
That is why these two sections work well as a paired review.
***
## Best Practices
* Keep status systems simple enough that teams will actually use them.
* Review storage policy before workspaces hit emergency cleanup mode.
* Avoid changing status behavior and storage policy without a clear operating reason.
* Revisit both policies during quarterly workspace health reviews.
