What this guide covers

Disable hooks and invoice integration without dropping module tables. This guide follows the supplied Delivery Note module’s live hooks, controller actions, model rules, views and stored side effects.

Exact step-by-step process

  1. Confirm no active delivery operation depends on immediate access.
  2. Deactivate Delivery Note from Setup → Modules.
  3. Verify the sidebar entry and invoice controls disappear.
  4. Retain the module directory and database if the feature may be reactivated.
  5. Reactivate and verify records only when authorised.

Fields, choices and supported possibilities

  • Deactivation sets `delivery_note_enabled` to `0`
  • Module-owned tables and records remain
  • Public and admin hooks stop operating while disabled

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • Deactivation is not deletion.
  • Existing secure links may stop resolving through normal module execution while disabled.
  • No data export is automatically produced before deactivation.

Expected result and verification

  • The feature is hidden and inactive while stored module data remains available for later reactivation.

Checks, security and troubleshooting

  • Plan operational communication before disabling links that recipients may still need.
Stay within the supported flowDo not force database values, expose secure tokens, bypass permission checks, replace a stored signature or invent a status or interface that the supplied code does not implement.
