About Event States

Event States are the state of planning the event is in. The status of Tasks/Requests are not related to the Event State. Event states are used by Location and Resource Approvers to determine priority use. If you create your event with an Event State other than Confirmed you are responsible for updating the Event State when it changes. Below is a list of the Event States and helpful information about each one.
