Understanding the blocking and unblocking process
The following example demonstrates how the blocking and unblocking flow operates. The table below represents the status of an account that has changed over four stages.
In example one (#1) the Blocked column displays 1 (denotes the account is blocked). The ReasonID column displays 2 (informs why the account is blocked). The Blocking column is linked to the ReasonID column (informs you that 2 is the reason why the account is blocked). Finally, the BlockingReason column displays the value 2 (Displays all blocking reasons. There can be more than one).
In example two (#2), the account is still blocked by ReasonID, 4. The Blocking column displays 1 to notify you that ReasonID 4 is why the account is currently blocked. The BlockingReason displays 2, and4, this denotes that there are currently two items that contribute to the blocking of the account. If the ReasonID is changed the BlockingReason is updated. The last Blocking Reason shown is the reason the account is blocked.
The situation has changed in example three (#3), ReasonID 4 has been resolved and is not blocking the account anymore, the Blocking column displays 0 but the account is still blocked by ReasonID 2.
If we look at example four (#4) the Blocked column displays 0, this denotes that the account is no longer blocked. The BlockingReason displays (empty) and the Blocking column displays 0, this denotes that ReasonID 2 is not blocking the account anymore.
| Example Number | Status | Blocked | ReasonID | Blocking | BlockingReason |

| # 2 | 5 | 1 | 4 | 1 | 2,4 |
| # 3 | 5 | 1 | 4 | 0 | 2 |
| # 4 | 5 | 0 | 2 | 0 | (empty) |
