Hello Salman, Here's an update based on talking to some of the API engineers. The status field in the reporting API represents slightly different data than in the UI.
- In the AdWords user interface, *REMOVED* means that your ads won't serve there. - In the API, *REMOVED* means that the criterion was removed or has not been added. Due to this logic, the *ENABLED* field also comes out differently between the two interfaces. Even though the API interface tries to stay in step with the user interface, there are cases where a field may have a slightly different meaning.
