Lookup Type For Status Field

Question

Hello!
Please I need a direction to confirm that it is not recommended to add a lookup_code on the table FND_LOOKUP_VALUES, where the lookup_type is 'CODE_STATUS'.
I also need to confirm that this lookup_type is really the one available for most of the tables with the field STATUS, as in the table Hz_Cust_Acct_Sites_All.
There is a demand to add a new lookup_code in order to manage the STATUS, but that would kill the core searches, updates, ....
So, the demand must be solved with a flexfield.
I just need an OK to that, and if possible, any comment.
if it helps, here the select query:
select * from FND_LOOKUP_VALUES WHERE lookup_type LIKE 'CODE_STATUS%' ORDER BY 2,3
Thanks!

Answer 1

Got the answer from a SR today.
It says that I was correct and that:
"The statuses you will see are A and I and D (deleted if delete after merge ). Receivables only uses these three, and not any other.
DQM searches only search for customers with status of I and A. "
The query which lists these statuses is using the correct table (Fnd_Lookup_Values) and with the correct value for the lookup_type ('CODE_STATUS'). It doesn't mean it's the same query, but it's OK for a general notion of it.
