  <description>The warning goes out once and is never repeated. The chase repeats daily, but only for kit that was actually checked out, which is the gap that catches people.</description>

  <description>Off-site loans are where kit stops being covered and starts being one person's word against another's. What the booking record holds, and what it doesn't.</description>

  <title>What actually happens when someone marks kit damaged</title>

  <description>Ticking &quot;damaged&quot; on a return pulls the item off the shelf the same second. Getting it back on takes a person, on purpose, because nothing checks that it was fixed.</description>

  <description>A KitDesk tag encodes one thing, the item's reference, nothing else. That single fact decides what a random camera app shows you, and what happens if you delete an item and let its number get reissued.</description>

  <description>Type a name at booking and it's just text on that booking. Only a linked Borrower with an email address gets the reminder when the kit doesn't come back.</description>

  <title>Utilisation reports: what &quot;hardest working&quot; is actually counting</title>

  <description>The reports page ranks kit by hours out and flags what nobody's touched. Both numbers come from the booking, not a sensor on the item, and that gap matters.</description>

  <description>A stock-take isn't just counting kit. Presence, location and condition are three separate facts, and KitDesk only ties two of them to the same scan.</description>

  <description>The kiosk queues checkouts and returns locally when the connection dies, then replays them once it's back. Here is what that actually covers, and what it does not.</description>

  <description>A camera and a printed tag do not stop kit going missing by themselves. Here is what changes, what does not, and where the paper sheet was never the real problem.</description>
