Correcting a saved record
Maintenance logs support editing and soft delete. Deleted items are removed from routine lists but are still intended to remain audit-visible for compliance purposes. Editing a saved log is treated as a correction, not a silent overwrite. Select Edit, make your changes, and enter a reason — it’s required. What happens next depends on your permissions:- If you hold
maintenance_logs:correct, the correction applies immediately. It’s still logged as a correction (self-reviewed), so the audit trail is complete. - Otherwise, the correction is held as pending until someone with
maintenance_logs:correctapproves it (applying the change) or rejects it (with required notes explaining why).
Best practices
- use precise descriptions
- include material amounts when logging chemical additions
- tie work to a specific pool whenever possible
- use consistent categories so filtering stays useful
