## 1. Site statuses

- **Awaiting payment** — the setup invoice is not paid yet.
- **In review** — paid; our team is checking your request.
- **Changes requested** — we asked you to change something.
- **Being built** — approved; your site is being set up on your domain.
- **Active** — your site is up.
- **Sales closed**, **No new accounts**, **Suspended** — an invoice is overdue; see [Late payments](https://buildpropfirm.com/help/late-payments).
- **Cancelled** — the order was cancelled or the request was not accepted.

## 2. While we review

Paying the setup invoice moves your site to **In review**. Until we approve it you can still change your request on the site's page and click **Save changes**. This is also the time to [connect your domain](https://buildpropfirm.com/help/connect-your-domain): we approve only when your domain's records are in place.

We then approve the request, ask for changes, or — rarely — decline it. A declined request is **Cancelled** and the setup payment is refunded in full.

## 3. Answer a change request

When the status is **Changes requested**, our note is shown under **What we asked you to change** and you get the e-mail "Please update your request". Edit your request, click **Save changes**, then **Send for review again**.

## 4. After approval

Once we approve, the request can no longer be edited here: from then on you change your site's settings in its own admin panel. The status becomes **Being built** and you get the e-mail "Your site is being built".

> Editing the request is possible only while the site is Awaiting payment, In review or Changes requested.

## 5. Building your site

The site's page shows **Building your site** with its progress: Creating your site → Configuring → Installing → Starting → Applying your brand and settings → Ready. If the build pauses, our team is already on it.

The status turns **Active** as soon as your new site comes online, and the page says **Your site is up. We sent the link to your admin** to your admin e-mail. Next: [open your site's admin](https://buildpropfirm.com/help/site-admin-and-launch).
