Earn Value Analysis makes use of Baseline data while the "Status" field has nothing to do with Baseline. The "Status" field is based on the following fields
Start Date
% Complete
Status Date
E.g. If "Status Date" is Day 5 and a 10-day Task is shown as 50% complete on Day 5, then "Status" field value is "On Schedule" but if this 10-day Task is shown as 20% on Day 5, then "Status" field value is "Late".

A Task that is 100% complete will have "Status" field value as "Complete" while a Task whose "Start Date" is greater than "Status Date" will have "Status" field value of "Future Task".
