# Package states

<Tip>
  New package states may be added in future releases. It is recommended that you always validate your integration against the sandbox before new releases are deployed into production.
</Tip>

<Note>
  Release 4.0 introduces two new package states, `executed` and `expired`. In 3.6 both executed and expired packages were in an `open` state.

| open      | 1.0     | The package will be ready for signing, and notifications will be sent to the signer(s) if enabled.                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |

VSR packages will expire 7 days after their scheduled meeting date.                                                                                                                                                                              |
| rescinded | 3.5     | The package was rescinded and is no longer available for signing.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| select    | 3.6     | Use the select state only when the package will be opened in the **embedded package editor** and you want the workflow to prompt the user to choose a package type. Packages in the select state will be automatically deleted if not converted to draft or open within 24 hours.                                    |
| add       | 2.9     | Use the add state only when the package will be opened in the **embedded package editor** and you want the workflow to function as if you're creating a new package, rather than editing an existing one. Packages in the add state will be automatically deleted if not converted to draft or open within 24 hours. |
