create sharepoint columns

Hi, kinda new to sharepoint in this capacity. I am trying to figure out a way if I can add a column as like a check list to let me know what items have been done and what items have not been done.

I'd like a drop down box with several different things to choose to note if it is new, in progress, has issues or is completed.

    ellabella1982 in addition to the above suggestion, you may want to use Planner, it has this functionality built into it. You can add a Plan to a SharePoint site and then display it on a page using the Planner Web Part, see https://support.office.com/en-us/planner to get started with this approach. 

     

    This will provide you much more functionality that you will get with a SharePoint list.

    Would creating a column with a Choice Menu suffice?  You can provide specific responses in the menu & the end user would provide the status.
