# Change Status
In the **Accounts Overview** page, each trading account includes an **Actions** dropdown. For accounts with eligible statuses, the **Change Status** button is available to allow admin-initiated status updates based on specific operational needs.
The **Change Status** option only appears if the account is currently in one of the following statuses:
* **Active**
* **Upgraded**
* **Breached**
* **Upgrade Rejected**
## Change Flow by Current Status
From **Active**, administrator can change the account status to:
* **Breached**
* Admin must provide:
* **Breach Rules** (free text)
* **Reason** (text field)
* A **notification email** will be sent to the user, and the breach information will also appear on the user's **Objective Dashboard**.
* **Upgraded**
* Admin has the option to:
* Select a **Trading Program** for the user's **next account level**, or
* Select **None** to skip account creation
* If a program is selected:
* A new account will be created.
* A **notification email** will be sent to the user.
* if **None** is selected:
* No new account is created.
* No email is sent to the user.
From **Breached**, administrator can change the account status to:
* **Active**
* Admin must choose one of the following balance restoration options:
* **Reset to Initial Balance**
* **Latest Balance**
* **Custom Balance** (manual input)
* This action **does not** reset the entire account. Other data such as history and objectives will remain unchanged.
From **Upgraded**, administrator can change the account status to:
* **Active**
* No additional fields or options are required.
From **Upgrade Rejected**, administrator can change the account status to:
* **Active**
* No additional fields or options are required

**Notes & Considerations**
* This feature does **not allow arbitrary status jumps** - only permitted transitions based on the rules above.
* Changing to **Breached** or **Upgraded** from **Active** has implications for user experience and downstream automation, such as account creation and email notifications.

This tool empowers admins to flexibly manage user account lifecycle transitions while maintaining controlled logic and audit trails.
