Understanding the TeamPlayer status in the Buyout Tab
A TeamPlayer Contractor can invite subcontractors to use TeamPlayer by emailing a Subcontract Agreement to the Vendor.
When the Commitment type has been configured to be used with TeamPlayer and the Vendor is enabled to use TeamPlayer, the emailed Commitment is an invitation to sign up and start using TeamPlayer.
Not all commitments can be billed from TeamPlayer. First of all the commitment needs to be Eligible for TeamPlayer.
Once you have completed setting up your Subs and Commitment types you'd be able to see in the Buyout tab the column TeamPlayer, each commitment will show a different status according to the configuration assigned. Here is a brief description of what each status means:
Dash "-":

This is how the column and Status are displayed in the Buyout Tab.
