AppColl automatically updates matters to an "Expired" Status when the Expiration Date for the matter is greater than or equal to the current date. As such, future expiration dates can be added and matters will properly update to 'Expired' once the date is reached.

Please note: AppColl automatically adds an expiration date for Provisionals when a filing date has been added. Also, AppColl adds an expiration date for U.S. Design patents once an issue date is entered.

AppColl does not auto-populate expiration dates for any other matter types.
