Update maintenance status
Follow this guide to use a displayed status and record notes/evidence. 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.
Where to goAdmin Area → Maintenance & Jobs → open request → Status
Before you start
- Use an account with Authorised maintenance staff and confirm the intended record or setting before making a change.
- Follow the exact route above. If the screen or action is absent, check module activation, ownership and permissions rather than using another person’s account.
- Use controlled test data for configuration, integration, email, AI, payment, portal or automation changes before production-wide use.
What you’ll accomplish
Use a displayed status and record notes/evidence. The instructions reflect the supplied module’s registered menus, controller actions, views, settings and code-backed validation flow.
Follow these steps
- Go to Admin Area → Maintenance & Jobs → open request → Status.
- Go to the exact setting, option or record named in this guide.
- Enter or select the required value; leave unrelated options unchanged.
- Save the form and wait for the success response.
- Reload the page or open a controlled record to confirm the stored value is being used.

Rules the system enforces
- Supplier portal status values are normalised separately.
- Buy and rent requests use separate real_buy_request and real_rent_request capability groups.
- Status changes and conversion actions validate the current request and linked record IDs.
- Public application and onboarding actions use token/record checks and explicit workflow states.
- Do not advance a workflow until the required party, property, dates, financial terms and consent/evidence are complete.
- Maintenance hub visibility is tied to customer-view access in the registered menu.
- Supplier completion can create a Pending supplier invoice when one does not already exist.
How to confirm it worked
- The supported update maintenance status flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
- The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
- Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.
Security, privacy and operational checks
- Apply least privilege to purchasing, vendor, invoice, payment, return, contract and report permissions.
- Verify vendor identity, bank/payment details, tax, currency, totals and approvals before creating financial commitments.
- Treat public links, signatures, portal files, attachments and exported reports as controlled business records.
- Test settings and automated jobs with controlled records before production-wide use.
