Plan Status

The current operating state of a service plan: active, paused, or inactive.

Why LAWNSNOWAPP asks for it

The Owner needs to stop or pause normal recurring work without deleting the agreement and its history.

How LAWNSNOWAPP uses it

LAWNSNOWAPP stores the state and separates active plans from paused or inactive plans in planning logic and presentation.

Example

Use Paused for a temporary service hold and Inactive when the plan should no longer produce normal recurring work.

If you leave it blank

The current or default active status remains in effect.

If you change it later

Future plan presentation and recurring-work decisions use the new state; existing jobs and finalized invoices are not deleted.

Common mistakes

  • Deleting plan history to stop future service
  • Assuming changing plan status automatically cancels every existing job
