# PdfStatus

`PdfStatus` is the lifecycle status of a tracked PDF operation, assigned to `PdfResult.Status` according to which `PdfResult` constructor is used and carried on `PdfTrackingInfo`. ([BR-45](../../business-rules.md#br-45-result-status-by-constructor))

## Purpose
- Represents where a tracked PDF operation stands in its lifecycle, from not yet tracked through terminal success or failure states.

## Context
- Namespace: `PdfAPI.Core`
- Assembly/package: `PdfAPI.Core`

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| NotTracked | `PdfStatus.NotTracked` | The operation is not being tracked. |
| Failed | `PdfStatus.Failed` | The operation failed. |
| Scheduled | `PdfStatus.Scheduled` | The operation is scheduled but not yet started. |
| Succeeded | `PdfStatus.Succeeded` | The operation completed successfully. ([BR-45](../../business-rules.md#br-45-result-status-by-constructor)) |
| Aborted | `PdfStatus.Aborted` | The operation was aborted before completion. |
| Cancelled | `PdfStatus.Cancelled` | The operation was cancelled. |
| Processing | `PdfStatus.Processing` | The operation is currently in progress. |

## Behavioral notes
- `PdfResult`'s success constructor sets `Status` to `Succeeded`; its failure constructor sets a failure-oriented status; the specific constructor invoked determines which value is assigned. ([BR-45](../../business-rules.md#br-45-result-status-by-constructor))

## Constraints and usage notes
- None beyond selecting the constructor or value appropriate to the operation's actual outcome.
