Steps​

Step 1: Locate the plant or equipment item​

Open the plant or equipment record you want to review so its current lifecycle stage is visible in the header or details panel.

Locate the plant or equipment item

Step 2: Check the current lifecycle stage chip​

Look at the stage chip for the item; it shows a text label such as "On hire" or "Off hire" so you can immediately see its current status.

Step 3: Distinguish between on-hire and off-hire stages​

Compare the chip’s label, tone and icon to understand whether the item is currently on hire or off hire; each stage uses a distinct appearance so they are not confused.

Step 4: Rely on text and icon, not colour alone​
