Contract statuses

Contract statuses

  • Home and the new Procurement experience is being gradually rolled out throughout 2025.

  • When Home displays in the left menu, you know you’re on the new Procurement experience.
  • Right now, contract statuses only display in the original Procurement experience, but we’re working hard to make this feature available in the new Procurement experience as well.

Contract statuses are displayed in the" Contract" page in the status column.

Contracts table

Contract status is also visible on the "Purchases" and "Vendors" screens in the form of an icon placed next to the vendor's name. When hovering over the status, more details display.

The applicable statuses are:

  • During approval stage:

    • Open - Contract is not approved yet. This status is only relevant when there is an approval flow.

    • Rejected - Contract was rejected in approval flow. This status is only relevant when there is an approval flow.

    • On hold - Vendor was not approved but contract was. Contract will be approved once the vendor is approved.

  • After approval:

    • Approved - Contract was approved but not yet active (i.e., the start date is in the future).

    • Active - The end date is after today or the contract doesn’t have an end date and the start date is today or earlier.

    • Expired - The end date, if set, has passed.

    • Inactive - The user has manually clicked the "deactivate" button.

    • About to expire - It's only relevant for contracts with a pre-expiration notification, and is based on the date range set in the contract.
