Availability of Actions for Editing Posts
Administrators perform actions on posts on the Post Administration - Post Edit Request page. The system lists the edit functions that can be processed on a post based on these rules:

For example, if the status of a post is Vacant, all delivered edit functions are available for selection when the post is edit mode with a couple of exceptions: the post cannot be cut if it is not created in the administration phase. Also, the post cannot be reset if deleting the effective date would leave it in the status of New.
