# Transaction statuses

Source: https://developer.avalara.com/ecommerce-integration-guide/transactions/transaction-statuses/

The status of a transaction determines whether to include the transaction on reports or to report it on tax returns.

Transactions in the AvaTax web portal can have one of the following statuses:

-   **Uncommitted**:  
    The transaction is added in AvaTax, but not committed. It isn't included on reports or returns filed by Managed Returns until it's committed.

-   **Committed**:  
    The transaction is committed to AvaTax and included on reports and the next filed return.

-   **Void**:  
    The transaction is voided in AvaTax, and isn't included on report or returns.

-   **Locked**:  
    The transaction is included on a tax return. To change locked transactions, contact [Avalara Support](https://knowledge.avalara.com/bundle/xti1670300535545/page/contact_avalara_support.html "https://help.avalara.com/Contact_Avalara") or [amend the return](https://knowledge.avalara.com/bundle/hps1656397152776_hps1656397152776/page/Filing_a_return_amendment.html "Amend and File Late").

If you use the AvaTax API, you'll see transactions with the following statuses in the API call response data:

-   **Saved**:  
    The transaction is saved to AvaTax, but not committed. It isn't included on reports or returns filed by Managed Returns you commit it. Transactions with the Saved status appear as Uncommitted when you view them in the AvaTax web portal.

-   **Posted**:  
    The transaction is saved, and AvaTax verified that it matches the transaction posted in your business application. It isn't included on reports or returns filed by Managed Returns until it's committed. Transactions with the Posted status appear as Uncommitted when you view them in the AvaTax web portal.

-   **Adjusted**:  
    The transaction has been adjusted. When you adjust a transaction, the original version is saved with the status Adjusted. The current version of the transaction has a status of Committed, Uncommitted, Saved, Posted, or Void. You can use the AvaTax API to filter on the Adjusted status to view the original transaction details.

-   **Temporary**:  
    The API call used a document type ending in Order, such as `SalesOrder`. Order document types are used to estimate tax, and the transactions aren't saved in AvaTax.

-   **Cancelled**:  
    The transaction has been cancelled and isn't included on report or returns. Cancelled transactions appear as Void when you view them in the AvaTax web portal.
