FPDS Query Variable
content__IDV__transactionInformation__closedStatus
Title
Closed Status
FPDS Path
IDV/transactionInformation/closedStatus
Description
Boolean or coded flag indicating whether the IDV transaction is closed. It captures the closure status of the award record rather than the financial completion of the underlying work.
Business Meaning
This field helps analysts separate open vehicles from terminated or fully closed instruments when reviewing award lifecycle, competition exposure, and obligation activity. It is useful for compliance checks, portfolio aging, and filtering records that should no longer be considered active in performance or opportunity analyses.

Comparison Summary
FPDS Query flattens the original nested FPDS XML path 'IDV/transactionInformation/closedStatus' into the SQL-ready variable 'content__IDV__transactionInformation__closedStatus'.

Use Cases

  • Dictionary lookup and field explanation
  • SQL filtering and grouping
  • Analytical reporting and reusable query building

Common Usage

  • Filter to active IDVs versus closed IDVs
  • Identify awards for lifecycle or expiration analysis
  • Support compliance and records management reporting

Common Mistakes

  • Assuming closed status means all orders under the IDV are complete
  • Treating blank or null values as equivalent to open without checking source encoding

Query Guidance

Use explicit comparisons against the documented closed indicator values in SQL, and verify whether the column stores boolean values, Y/N codes, or other coded text. For example, filter on the closed value only after confirming the dataset's encoding, and handle nulls separately if they represent missing rather than open status.
