Valid dates for a given trial status depend on the other values you have entered, and whether those dates are Actual (current, or past) or Anticipated (future).
The following diagram illustrates these rules. The arrow at the top of the diagram represents a time line for the life of a trial. The three horizontal bands in the lower section of the diagram represent, from top to bottom, the relative date (actual or anticipated) rules for trial Start Date types, Primary Completion Date types, and Study Completion Date types.
