What you’ll accomplish
Retire an unused asset without breaking historic jobs. The instructions below follow the supplied module’s controller, form and model rules, including server-side validation and downstream effects.
Follow these steps
- Verify there is no active assignment.
- Use Delete and confirm.
- Check it is removed from active lists.
- Retain job, POD and finance history.
Fields and options to review
This action uses the values already stored on the selected source record. Review that record before continuing.
Rules the system enforces
- Use soft deletion only for retirement/duplicate clean-up, not as a substitute for maintenance or unavailable status.
How to confirm it worked
- The source record, status/history and any downstream notification, provider, POD or finance record should agree after the action.
Security, audit and operational checks
- Use the exact record and least-privilege role before changing any state.
- Verify the saved record after every action; a browser message alone is not evidence that every downstream step completed.
- Use protected document and image routes rather than exposing server filesystem paths.
- Keep customer, driver, provider, financial and credential data within the authorised workflow.
- For provider, finance, employment, transport and compliance decisions, follow the organisation’s authorised professional process.
Do not bypass the code flowDo not force database values, invent a status, mark a job completed without signed POD evidence, or expose encrypted credentials to make a screen appear successful.
