  3. Inventory can only be recorded during a pick-up job after the job has been started and is in progress
  4. Once a job has been started and is in progress, it cannot be paused or stopped, it can only be completed
  5. To "reset" a job so it can be started again, this can only be completed using the ServiceCore web app
