   • Device must not be terminated/canceled.
   • User must have the security clearance required to have access to:
     "Administer devices" and "Administer the device's advanced settings".

   • If the vehicle is different from the original, create a new vehicle profile to avoid data inconsistencies. Reactivating a historical vehicle does not require a name or description change.
