Licence override lifecycle

The Lifecycle

Transitions Explained

A decision’s commercial standing follows its start and end instants without scheduled writes. The start is inclusive and the end exclusive. Staff withdrawal is the persisted change and records the withdrawing person with the time. Its history and refresh work happen after the decision write.

What Cannot Happen

There is no operation to edit, extend or restore an existing override. A repeat withdrawal is a conflict. Expired and withdrawn decisions remain in staff history while the workspace exists.

Concurrency and Timing

Natural expiry requests no cache refresh, so cached authority can outlast the instant of commercial expiry within its lifetime. Conditional withdrawal admits only one competing request.
