Towing/Storage + Rental

The full Movement Action sequence for a Towing/Storage + Rental claim type. The client gets a rental vehicle and their vehicle is towed in — same flow as Towing/Storage + Free Rental, the Delivery Workflow branches depending on whether the client's vehicle is being repaired or is a total loss — the only difference is this claim type creates a paid Rental demand instead of a free one.

info

Is_customers_vehicle_being_repaired_or_a_total_loss (Claim Form field, values Repaired / Total Loss) is asked during the CC Workflow's first stage — the Job Booking Stage form — and saved on the claim.

WORKFLOW COMPLETED ⚠ (Total Loss — no client vehicle to follow up on)

If Is_customers_vehicle_being_repaired_or_a_total_loss == Total Loss, there's no client vehicle left to hand back, so returning the rental vehicle here finishes the job outright. If Repaired, Hire Status stays On Hire and the client-vehicle Delivery step still has to run.

4. Delivery Workflow — Hire Status == On Hire

Which path runs depends on Is_customers_vehicle_being_repaired_or_a_total_loss.

Repaired — same two paths as Towing + Repair + Rental

Path A — Book Delivery (combined): rental vehicle not yet collected, so the driver hands back the client vehicle and picks up the rental vehicle in the same visit.

Hire Status == On Hire
(Repaired)


Book Delivery


Update Delivery


Vehicle Inspection


Add Fuel Receipt

WORKFLOW COMPLETED ⚠ (Hire Status → Off Hire)

Path B — Book Client Vehicle Delivery (rental already collected): the Rental Only Pick-Up Flow already ran, so this visit only needs to hand back the client vehicle.

(Repaired, Rental Only Pick-Up already completed)

Total Loss — rental-only, no client vehicle steps

There's no client vehicle to hand back, so Book Delivery only runs the rental-return steps:

Hire Status == On Hire
(Total Loss)

WORKFLOW COMPLETED ⚠ (Hire Status → Off Hire)

Book Rental Only Pickup behaves the same way in a Total Loss job — see Rental Only Pick-Up Flow above: it finishes the job directly instead of leaving Hire Status On Hire, since there's no client vehicle left to deliver.
