To require users to follow the status values as they are on the path and prevent them from reverting back to previous status values, the administrator should use validation rules that check if the status field value is changed from one value to another value that is not allowed by business logic. For example, if status values are New > In Progress > Closed, then a validation rule can check if status is changed from Closed to In Progress or New, and show an error message if true. Predefined Field Values, Global Value Picklists, and Dependent Picklists are not able to enforce status progression or prevent status reversion.

Manual sharing allows record owners to share individual records with other users or groups. This is useful when one-off sharing is needed for a specific situation. Hierarchical sharing, criteria-based sharing and owner-based sharing are not suitable for this scenario because they are based on predefined rules or roles that do not match the requirement.

A support process is a feature that allows administrators to define and enforce the stages that a case or work order must go through based on its record type. A support process determines which values are available for the status field for each record type. If a support process omits a certain value for the status field, such as Closed, then users will not be able to see or select that value when working with cases or work orders of that record type.
