Request Status Workflow

Role-based actions (summary)

• Approve — Admins anywhere; Managers/Supervisors at the request’s location when status is Pending.
• Start dismantling — After approval; location-scoped for warehouse/service roles.
• Manage components — While In Progress; add recovered parts tied to the request.
• Complete — Finalize when all components are recorded.

Non-admin users typically see only requests for their assigned location.
