Closing the Event
📆 Revision Date:
Closed or Ended Event
In EventKey, a Closed or Ended event refers to an event that has fully concluded—both operationally and financially. This status indicates that all event activities have taken place, all associated charges have been posted, and billing has been finalized. Once an event is marked as Closed, it is considered complete and no further edits, service execution, or financial transactions should occur. This status helps maintain data integrity, supports accurate reporting, and signals that the event is ready for archiving or historical reference.
