| Status | Description |
| --- | --- |
| Assigned | Equipment is assigned to a Line Card Route. |
| Assigned (In-Use) | Equipment is assigned to a Line Card Route and is activated (route change is committed). |
| Available | Equipment is not currently in use, but can be reserved and then assigned. |
| Bulk Equipment Change | Equipment is part of a Bulk Equipment Change, but the associated orders have not been submitted. This status only applies to equipment with an Assignment Method of "Single Customer." |
| Left-In | The Line Card Route is no longer in use by a customer, but the equipment has been left in place for the next customer. |
| Not Available | Equipment not in use and can’t be reserved or assigned. |
| Reserved | Equipment is being held for future use by a specific customer. You cannot change the status of a piece of equipment to Reserved. The system changes the status to Reserved just before the equipment is added to a Line Card Route. Generally, you will not see a status of Reserved since the system changes the status from Reserved to Assigned almost immediately. You can cancel a reservation once you have found it using the Inventory Reservation Search. > [!NOTE] > Note > > Only equipment whose Assignment Method is "Single Customer" can be reserved. See [Reserved Equipment](/v1/docs/reserved-equipment). |
| Retired | Equipment is no longer available in the inventory, but is retained in inventory for historical purposes. |

The status changes based on the Assignment Method.
