# How to manage deal expiration?

If you need to grant exclusivity on a deal to ensure your partner can work safely on it, or you simply want to ensure deals are closed within a specific time period, the deal expiration feature is for you.

## Managing deal expiration

To manage deal expiration, follow the steps below:

* Go to **Account Settings**
* Click on **Deals settings**
* Toggle the **Deal expiration** option

Once you have enabled the button, you have to set two values:

* the default number of days before a deal expires
* the default number of days before being notified of the expiration of a deal

Once the deal reaches its expiration reminder date or expiration date, the partner and the owner of the deal will be notified.

## Setting the expiration date when accepting a deal

When a new deal has been registered by your partner, you can accept it and set your expiration date.

* Click on **Accept**
* Set a **Deal expiration date**
* Set a Deal **Expiration reminder date**
* Click **Accept**

The default value set in the account settings will be used.

## Changing the deal expiration date

If you need to change the expiration date because your partner needs more time to close the deal, follow the steps:

* Go to the **Deal**
* Click **Edit**
* Scroll down and change the deal expiration date and expiration reminder date properties

## Postponing deal expiration

Once a deal has expired, it will have the expired tag:

To postpone the expiration of a deal, follow these steps:

* Open an expired deal
* Click on the **Postpone** button under the expired status
* Set a new expiration date and reminder date
* Click **Postpone**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs-vnext.kiflo.com/leads-deals/deal-registration/manage-deal-expiration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
