What does a condition code indicate?

• A. Warranty period and vendor contact.
• B. Current status and required action (useable, repairable, condemned).
• C. Storage location and expiration date.
• D. Security classification and custody level.

Answer: (B)

Condition codes convey the item's status and the action required to handle it. They tell you whether an item is usable as issued, repairable and returnable to stock, unserviceable and destined for repair, or condemned and slated for disposal. This information guides disposition decisions—whether to issue, route for maintenance, return to supplier, or remove from inventory. It’s about what needs to be done with the item, not about warranties, storage details, or security classifications.
