how do I get enterprise contracts (procurement Buy) to convert into an active status - all draft now

Summary:

We are currently in the process of performing a data conversion of legacy contracts into Oracle Cloud. We are encountering an issue where all imported contracts default to "Draft" status, and we are unable to transition them to "Active."

We need to understand why these records are failing to import or convert into an "Active" status directly.

• Goal: To have the converted contracts appear in "Active" status upon completion of the import.
• Current Behavior: Contracts are landing in "Draft" status regardless of the inputs provided.
• Question: Is there a specific validation check or configuration requirement during the import process that forces a "Draft" status? Are there known dependencies (such as specific workflow settings or approval rules) that must be bypassed or configured differently to allow for a direct "Active" import?
