Understand contract status

See how start dates, end dates, and cancellation affect whether a contract is active.

Contract status is based on the contract dates and cancellation state.

This decides whether the contract is active for generation.

When a contract is active

A contract is active when it has started and has not ended or been cancelled.

A contract is inactive when it has not started yet, has ended, or has been cancelled.

Why status matters

Only active contracts can keep generating future work according to their setup.

Inactive contracts stay available for history and reference.
