Hi Annette,
Auctiva doesn't "copy listings from status to status". ONLY, the listings that appear in Saved Listings are actually saved at Auctiva. The ACTIVE and CLOSED are simply a posted status of what's happening with the listing at eBay. I think of those more like an audit trail of what's happening or has happened at eBay. That's why there is a time-delay in those being updated, as Auctiva queries eBay to get the updates to status. They also have to goto eBay to get a listing via the IMPORT feature, and that does often have a delay for it to get queued and processed there.
