5.5 Reactivate a device profile

Inactive devices do not appear in the examination list. In order to reactivate a device profile, you must be at step 2 of the work order process.

  1. From the Step 2: Prepare work order page, select Add new device.
  2. Enter the serial number in the Serial number field.
  3. A warning message that the device may already exist will display.
  4. Select Update device to reactivate the device profile.
  5. Fill in all the required fields (they are preceded by a red asterisk).
  6. Update the Device status field by selecting the applicable option from the drop-down list.
  7. Select Save to complete the reactivation process; otherwise select Cancel to discontinue the process and return to the Step 2: Prepare work order page.

Note: You can also select the Save and clone option to reactivate and add the profile of a second device with the same specifications; however, this is not recommended.

 

Information – Avoid using the Save and clone option when reactivating device profiles.

Although the option is available, it is recommended to reactivate and add device profiles separately. Cloning a reactivated device profile as part of the same step is not recommended.

Once the device profile is reactivated, the device will appear on the examination list. Refer to the Device manual for more information about devices and examination data fields. Refer to Section 6: Work orders, worksheets and certificates for instructions on completing the work order.
