Checking only one box cancels the whole ticket too. One box checked, two boxes checked, or more, your "company provided ticket" for the leg(s) you want to actually travel on is going to need to be re-purchased.
Yes, I will concede that you are correct depending on how it’s booked. If it’s a same day, same airline, connecting flight, yes. If it has a layover in between it could be booked separately. But if you don’t deviate on the second leg, initiating a purchase of the ticket for the second leg is a ticket for the scheduled DH.
What I’m trying to say is, if you clicked the deviate for the second leg, it doesn’t matter that you have a ticket for the flight that matches your pairing, regardless of how you obtained said ticket. You have still deviated for that leg, and you can’t be undeviated. There are no protections for that.
