SerialNumberStatus Transition Availability

The new state for serial numbers is dependent on their current state, as shown below. Read the table as changing state from Row to Column:

• Yes = Allowed
• No = Disallowed

E.g. RESERVED cannot be DESTROYED or DECOMMISSIONED, DESTROYED and DEACTIVATED are terminal states that cannot be undone, DECOMMISSIONED can only be COMMISSIONED, and so forth.
