At the End Intercept Date (which can be the same date as the Effective Date of the CR or up to 120 days regardless of how many days are within a month after the Effective Date of the CR), the CR will be deleted from the SCPs. If the CR's End Intercept Date is less than 120 days after the Disconnect Effective Date of the CR, the CR will become Transitional. However, if there are future Pending CRs (e.g. to reactivate the CR with a Pending new connect), then the CR status of the disconnected CR becomes “Old”.
Please Note: The End Intercept Date must be within the Industry Guidelines standard time period which is 120 days from the Effective Date of the Disconnect CR.
