Follow this guide to use the supported activation and version-upgrade flow so required tables and options exist.
Where to goAdmin Area → Setup → Modules → Courier & Logistics Management
Before you start
- Create a platform backup using the organisation’s approved release process.
- Verify the platform version satisfies the module requirement 3.0.*.
What this guide helps you do
Use the supported activation and version-upgrade flow so required tables and options exist. The instructions below follow the supplied module’s controller, form and model rules, including server-side validation and downstream effects.
Follow these steps
- Upload or deploy the complete module directory.
- Activate the module from Modules.
- Allow the activation hook to run install.php.
- Reload the admin area so the module upgrade check can apply any newer schema version.
- Go to Courier & Logistics → Dashboard and confirm the schema-ready view loads.
Fields and options
Module version2.0.0 in the supplied package.
Platform requirement3.0.*.
InstallerCreates module tables, indexes and default options; future version checks reuse the installer.
Rules and limits
- Do not manually create isolated tables instead of running the supported installer.
- Do not remove install.php after activation because upgrade checks depend on it.
Check 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.
