How to edit an order's delivery details in Dumpster Controls

Wrong address, wrong size, wrong can number, wrong dates: all fixable from the order's "Delivery Information" card without recreating anything.

1
Open the editor
Expand the order in Order History and click "Edit" on the "Delivery Information" card. (The same fields are editable in the Operations drawers.)
2
Fix the address
The "Address" field has autocomplete; "City", "State", and "Zip" fill in when you pick a suggestion and stay editable.
3
Fix size and debris
"Dumpster Size" lists your active sizes. "Debris Type" offers "Household", "Construction", "Yard Waste", "Concrete / Heavy", "Roofing", and "Mixed".
4
Rebind the "Dumpster Number"
The unit dropdown ("Select dumpster unit") shows every unit of that size, marking the bound one "(current)" and blocking units "(in use by another order)". Choosing a different unit releases the old one back to available and binds the new one to this order. This is an admin override for correcting the linked can.
5
Adjust the dates and save
Change "Delivery Date" and "Pickup Date" if needed, then click "Save". A toast confirms "Saved" with "Delivery information updated."

What happens next

Active dispatch tasks for the order sync the new unit label automatically, so the driver sees the corrected can number.
The changes propagate to Order History, Operations, and Dispatch immediately.

It is bound to another active order ("in use by another order"). Free it there first, or pick another unit.
