Status management
Usage Example:
In status Created, you may budget, but not post to G/L accounts. Budgeting usually takes place before the start of a fiscal year. When the fiscal year actually starts, status Released is set. This allows G/L account postings, and other transactions, such as material purchase orders. The status Closed is set towards the end of the fiscal year. This prohibits all business transactions.
