What this guide covers

Record driver/operations acceptance. The instructions below follow the supplied module’s controller, form and model rules, including server-side validation and downstream effects.

Exact step-by-step process

  1. Open the assigned job.
  2. Confirm the assigned driver and vehicle.
  3. Change status to accepted.
  4. Add operational notes where applicable.
  5. Verify history.

Fields, choices and supported possibilities

This action uses the values already stored on the selected source record. Review that record before continuing.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • assigned may move to accepted or cancelled.
  • Statuses from assigned onward require a driver link.

Expected result and verification

  • 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.
