Record Statuses 

RAMS automatically determines the status of every record based on the information you have entered for the record and the current date.

Each record can have one of the following statuses:

Expired– a record whose expiration date has passed.

Expiring soon – a record that is close to its expiration date, based on the Alert Date value set for the registration or certificate record (see “How are the expiration dates calculated?”).

Pending – records that have not yet been approved/cleared 

In Progress - Records that have been previously approved/cleared and are now in the process of renewal or modification

Archived - a record that is not active or expired but archived, that remains in the system for future use or reference.

Active – a registration or certificate record that has been approved and is not near its expiration date.

When a record's status changes from Active to Expiring Soon, or when it changes from Expiring Soon to Expired, Rams will generate an alert regarding the registration or certificate record's expiration (see "Expiration alerts" for more information).
