The situation

Daily client gear was checked out for a CIS or trip and has returned to the lodge without a discrepancy. The returned quantities must be matched to the checkout before availability is restored and the trip's gear blocker can clear.

What starts it

The guide starts the CIS gear return or operations receives the physical gear.

How it unfolds
