Understand the complete job-status matrix
Apply only model-authorised transitions. The guide then takes you through the correct route, the checks to complete before making changes, the workflow in order, and the evidence to review afterwards.

Rules the system enforces
- Invalid transitions are rejected.
- Assigned and later operational states require a linked driver.
- Completed requires signed POD and snapshot.
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.
