German term
wird so gelebt
German to English
Bus/Financial
Management
Swiss German:
Excel table describing some process. When problems are detected, a plan of action is made. In this column, many entries simply say "wird so gelebt." What could this mean? Something like wird weiter so belassen? Left as is? I'm confused.

I was thinking of the English 'stet' used when going through reports, making changes, etc, stet is used in editing purposes

No (immediate) action required
Or maybe: "low priority action" or "deferred action". It certainly seems from your explanation that no specific action plan is recommended for this item at this time (though this could change when the process plan is next updated).

as described
It depends how you translate/interpret Beschreibung Massnahmen and the final Massnahme; if the two are clearly related, the final column might just confirm that the measure has been agreed.
Maybe it is possible to glean further clues from any entries under the same heading which do NOT read "wird so gelebt" ... ?
"etw. wird gelebt" usually refers to living by a certain belief system, operating according to your principles or putting theory into practice wholeheartedly, so I would think it refers to a measure that is "in progress" rather than "on hold" anyway.

A guess, of course. Could the "wird so gelebt" entries refer to laboratory cobfirmations of some sort?
