Beschreibung

When using Salesforce Data Loader to bulk insert Contract records, setting the Status field to Active during the insert operation is not supported and results in the following error:

“Choose a valid contract status and save your changes. Ask your admin for details.”

To address this limitation, follow the recommended two-step workaround outlined in this article.

 

Lösung

Since Data Loader does not support inserting Contract records directly in an Active status, follow the two-step process below:

Step 1: Insert the Contract record with the Status set to Draft.
Step 2: Update the record to change the Status to Activated.
