Active companies with date of cessation

Thanks for the response.

So is this the only use of date_of_cessation? We’re confused in part by this post, which seems to imply it is the same as dissolution date. Could you spell out the business rules underlying this field? Is it only used for restorations, or are there other uses too? If Active overrides this field, is this true for any (all?) other statuses? What happens if a company is restored more than once?

Thanks
