Hi
Is there documentation anywhere of the status field responses that can appear in Column O?

More particularly, i'm assuming BA waits for the user to clear the field in any of these instances, so even if a bet isn't placed due to a calculation/API error then this will be returned in Column O for the user to decide what to do?

i can't see this in the user manual or on the forum anywhere... as far as i can tell the possible values are

OK
PENDING
PLACED
MARKET_SUSPENDED
FAILED

are there any others?
Sometimes betfair can return an error if it is still trying to determine the liability when placing multiple bets, would this be covered by the FAILED status above, or does BA automatically retry in some instances and not inform the user?

thanks!

Interesting point! I am just thinking about the same. And maybe there is a definition in which case which response text is being posted.

May the admins here could help us with that. If they want to... :|
