Fields, choices and supported possibilities

mot_expirySaved date used by vehicle compliance monitoring and automation.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • When the monitored MOT date is in the past, automation can mark the vehicle expired and unavailable.
  • A future date alone does not prove the evidence is valid; retain and verify the source document through the organisation’s process.

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.
