How to use Activate / Deactivate (contextmenus, columnbuttons)

I'm using MIGXdb. Can anyone help with the following:

By default, publish/unpublish work fine. However, I cannot get active/inactive to work, even with a corresponding 'active' field (boolean) in my database. I can't find any documentation on this. Has anyone else got this working?

My database table and schema are working as expected in all other respects.

Thank you

Jim
