The four mentioned above : status, statuscode, status reason, statuscode, It's just two fields , These two fields exist in every entity , Whether it's the system's own entity or our customized entity .

about Status(statecode) Field , We can find that its data type is Status, And you cannot add custom options

about Status Reason(statuscode), This field is special , We can add new reason, It can also be for each reason Limit the circulation of , Like this :

1) Status Reason You can add , Delete , Sort, etc

 2) You can use "Edit Status Reason Transitions" Buttons for each status reason The next step is optional reason Options to limit , I will explain this in detail in the next blog :

Usually , The custom entity we created status There are only two states , Active and Inactive.

And its corresponding Status Reason It's also everyone Status Have the same value , for instance Status yes Active, So the corresponding Status Reason It's also Active, Except for the customized one .

The following table shows the values of these two fields in the database in different states :

The following is to change a record into active perhaps inactive Of C# Code , For reference only :

// enable a record
public static void EnableUser(IOrganizationService service, string entityName, Guid recordID)
{
	UpdateState(entityName, recordID, 0, -1, service);
}

// disable a record
public static void DisableUser(IOrganizationService service, string entityName, Guid recordID)
{
	UpdateState(entityName, recordID, 1, -1, service);
}

private static void UpdateState(string enName, Guid id, int state, int status, IOrganizationService service)
{
	SetStateRequest setState = new SetStateRequest()
	{
		EntityMoniker = new EntityReference()
		{
			Id = id,
			LogicalName = enName
		},
		State = new OptionSetValue(state),
		Status = new OptionSetValue(status)
	};
	service.Execute(setState);
}

In the above code status If the value of is -1, The default value will be used
