Status vs condition

  • Status describes lifecycle and operational availability.
  • Condition describes physical state.

  • Use needs_repair condition when the item is not usable.
  • Use lost only when the item cannot currently be accounted for.
  • Use retired when the item is permanently leaving normal service.
