First you need to understand order states.

After order has been placed, it gets New state. At that point, you can Hold it, Ship it, Invoice it or Cancel it, thereby assigning your order Hold, Processing, Processing, or Cancelled state, respectively. Once you ship and invoice, your order receives Completed state.

Now, each of these states can have a separate status, that you can define yourself if System -> Order statuses. In your case, if you want the order to say Dispatched, after you are finished shipping and invoicing, you would add Dispatched order status and assign it to Complete order state. Same goes for any other order states.
