Summary

Account status types allow you to define what statuses an account can be in (Pre-Active, Active, Suspended, etc.). When creating account status types you select one of four back-end statuses which will determine if the account status type is billable and if the can set the status type to be billable or non-billable as well as specifying if an account can be modified while it is in the status you have created. The behavior of the back-end statuses is explained in more detail below.

In this example an Account Status Type of ‘PreActive’ will be created which will be set as ‘Non-Billable' with the ‘Prevent Changes’ setting disabled. When set this status will not bill recurring charges on the account and will permit changes to be made to the account (e.g. packages can be added to the account, account and account-package settings can be modified).

For additional details on the fields presented on this the account status types screen see the the Account Status Types guideScreen screen help article.
