Rewritten 2026-08-31. This PR opened for shelf.nu#2940 alone. Two more report PRs merged into main on 2026-08-28 and both change pages this branch was already rewriting, so they were added here rather than shipped as a conflicting parallel PR. The original scope is unchanged and is section 1 below. CodeRabbit's three findings on the first commit are addressed in section 4.

Triggered by

  • shelf.nu #2940: fix(bookings): measure compliance lateness against the planned end dateView PR
  • shelf.nu #2961: fix(reports): gate report surfaces on a dedicated reports permission entityView PR
  • shelf.nu #2945: fix(reports): finish the quantity sweep in rows, buckets, CSVs and PDFsView PR

1. Booking Compliance measures the agreed deadline (#2940)

Checking in an overdue booking rewrites its end date to the moment it came back, and the deadline that was agreed is kept separately. The Booking Compliance report was reading the rewritten date, so every late return was scored on-time the instant somebody resolved it, and a workspace's on-time rate climbed toward 100% by construction. Compliance now reads the planned end on every axis. Extending a booking no longer moves the planned deadline either, so an extension can no longer clear a late return from the report.

Deploy verified. A read-only pipeline run against app.shelf.nu asserted the report's own new explainer copy before shooting: within 15 minutes of the scheduled end and overdue bookings always count as late are both live, and the ACME demo workspace reads 64% on-time, 30 of 84 late with real durations in the Return Status column.

  • New content/knowledge-base/getting-started-with-reports.mdx — section How Booking Compliance Decides On Time or Late, plus why Compliance and Overdue Items can legitimately disagree. Three of the four rules were nowhere on the site: it measures against the planned end; a return within 15 minutes of the scheduled end is on time (COMPLIANCE_GRACE_PERIOD_MS); only Complete, Archived and Overdue bookings count (MEASURABLE_BOOKING_STATUSES), with archivedWithoutCheckin: false excluding a reservation archived without check-in; and a booking is counted in the period its planned end falls in.
  • New content/updates/booking-compliance-measures-the-agreed-deadline.mdx — changelog. Above the threshold deliberately: it changes a number every customer looks at, and on-time rates will drop for organisations that have been resolving late returns.
  • Correction content/knowledge-base/early-check-in-and-check-out-of-bookings.mdx — said "Booking details display both the actual and original booking periods". They do not. originalFrom/originalTo appear in no booking-detail component, and a read-only probe of a live booking page confirmed neither "Original period" nor "Planned" renders there. Both periods are readable in the CSV export and in the PDF overview, which adds an Original period row only when they differ.
  • Correction content/knowledge-base/extending-booking-end-dates-in-shelf.mdx — said extending is "available to users with administrator permissions". PermissionAction.extend is held by SELF_SERVICE, ADMIN and OWNER, and not by BASE. Both halves of the old sentence were wrong. Also adds What Extending Does Not Change: an extension moves you out of Overdue Items immediately and still records a late return in Compliance.
  • Enhancement content/features/reports.mdx — one sentence on the Booking Compliance line, so a prospect knows the metric cannot be reset by the person it measures.

2. Reports are an Administrator and Owner surface (#2961)

getting-started-with-reports.mdx said, under Who Can Run Reports:

All workspace members with access to assets can open the Reports index.

That is now false, and it was only ever half true: Reports has never been in the sidebar for Base and Self-service (use-sidebar-nav-items.tsx:194, hidden: isBaseOrSelfService). The four surfaces behind it were gated on asset permissions as a stand-in, with an in-code TODO saying a dedicated entity was the plan, so a bookmarked or forwarded link still opened them.

Verified in packages/permissions/src/matrix.ts: [PermissionEntity.reports]: [] for BASE and SELF_SERVICE, [read, export] for ADMIN and OWNER. Route guards read reports:read on the index and report pages, reports:export on the CSV route and on the PDF route (#2961's body says PDF uses read; the source says export).

  • Correction content/knowledge-base/getting-started-with-reports.mdx — the section rewritten, naming both halves: hidden in the sidebar all along, and now refused by direct link too. Says explicitly that neither visibility toggle changes it and that reports stay included on every plan.
  • Enhancement content/features/reports.mdx — the Self-serve benefit bullet now says who the surface is for.

The rest of the #2961 rollout (the permissions matrix row, the Administrator/Self-service/Base role sections, the toggles page, and the src/data/pricing.features.ts description) is in #268, which touches no file this PR touches.


3. Report money counts units (#2945)

The hero KPIs already multiplied per-unit valuation by the right quantity. The rows, chart buckets, CSVs and PDFs under them summed bare per-unit prices, so one screen gave two answers and the half that disagreed was the half handed to third parties. On the QA database before the fix, Distribution's headline read $44,718.60 against category buckets summing to $43,871.95.

Deploy verified on app.shelf.nu, read-only. Fetched all three affected report CSVs through the export route and read line 0:

asset-inventory   Asset ID,Asset Name,Category,Location,Status,Custodian,Quantity,Unit Value,Total Value,Created Date,QR Code ID
custody-snapshot  Asset ID,Asset Name,Category,Location,Assigned To,Assigned Date,Days Held,Units Held,Unit Value,Total Value
overdue-items     Booking ID,Booking Name,Booked By,Asset Count,Due Date,Days Overdue,Value at Risk

The six new columns are live. The Asset Distribution page also now reads By Location 47 total against By Category 45 total on the demo workspace, which is the partially-placed asset appearing in its location and in No Location, exactly as #2945 describes.

  • New content/knowledge-base/getting-started-with-reports.mdx — section How Money Is Counted, with a table of which quantity each surface multiplies by. The site had never explained this, and for an individually tracked asset every quantity is one, so the distinction only shows up on pooled stock, where it is the whole story.
  • Enhancement content/knowledge-base/getting-started-with-reports.mdx — the export section names the three new columns in each of the two rebuilt files.
  • Enhancement content/features/reports.mdx — new Values That Add Up section. This is a genuine prospect-facing claim: a report whose parts reconcile with its own headline is what makes it hand-to-finance material.
  • New content/updates/report-values-count-the-units.mdx — changelog. Well above the threshold: totals move for any workspace tracking by quantity, and two CSV schemas changed, which anyone reading those files by column position needs to know.

4. CodeRabbit review, and the sibling it did not flag

All three findings were verified against shelf.nu source before applying.

  1. features/reports.mdx:41 "on-time checkouts" — correct. booking-compliance-content.tsx computes an on-time return rate and its status cell reads On time against the return. Fixed.
  2. early-check-in-and-check-out-of-bookings.mdx Actual period row omits a normal write path — correct, and the more serious of the three. partialCheckinBooking sets shouldAdjustEndDate when status === OVERDUE or when an early check-in carries CheckinIntentEnum["with-adjusted-date"]. The overdue branch has no dialog and no way to decline, so the table listed only the paths a user is asked about and omitted the one that happens by itself. Added, with a paragraph saying which paths ask and which do not.
  3. extending-booking-end-dates-in-shelf.mdx:56 lifecycle terminology — correct. "Fixed" was doing duty for both written and frozen. Reworded to: recorded at create, still moving on draft edits, fixed once reserved. The same sentence was cloned into getting-started-with-reports.mdx:72 and CodeRabbit did not flag it, because it only reviews the file a rule fires on. Both are fixed in one commit.

Review notes

  • content/updates/reports-v1.mdx (2026-04-30) also says "on-time checkouts" and is deliberately untouched, under the standing convention that a published update is a point-in-time record. Worth noting this one is a mislabel rather than a stale fact, so it is a slightly different case from the usual dated-entry question.
  • content/updates/reports-overdue-items-polish.mdx (2026-05-01) says "Booking Compliance now matches reality" and "lateness math has been rebuilt". That rebuild centralised the math but still measured against to, which check-in had already rewritten. Untouched for the same reason, flagged because the two entries sit near each other on /updates.
  • scripts/media-pipeline/articles/booking-compliance-calculation.mjs is deliberately not registered in run.mjs. content: Companion 1.4.0 is live — booking calendar, audit evidence, model and SAM ID #259 owned that file when this PR opened; content: the last three pages that said Shelf has ten reports, and an audits capability the feature page never claimed #270 now registers nrm-actions-and-delete on main, so this slug goes into the next PR that owns run.mjs after this one merges. An unregistered article still runs by path; a registered entry pointing at a missing file breaks run.mjs all.
  • No alternatives sweep for #2961 or #2945. A permission tightening is not a competitive claim, and while "our report totals reconcile" is a real advantage, saying so on a competitor page means asserting theirs do not, which I cannot evidence.

Impact scope

  • End users affected: anyone who reads Booking Compliance, any admin extending bookings, any Base or Self-service user with a Reports bookmark, and any workspace tracking assets by quantity
  • Prospects affected: teams evaluating Shelf on accountability reporting and on whether its numbers reconcile
  • Pages modified: 5
  • Pages created: 3
  • Pages flagged for review: 2 dated changelog entries, deliberately untouched

Generated by Shelf Content Intelligence — PR→Website Sync

Triggered by: Shelf-nu/shelf.nu#2940

Compliance was measuring lateness against a date that check-in had
already rewritten, so every late return was recorded as on time the
moment it was resolved. It now reads the planned end on every axis.

Also corrects two claims found while tracing it: the booking detail page
does not show the original period (only the PDF overview and the CSV
export do), and extending a booking is available to Self-service users
as well as admins, but not to Base users.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0ef91

This PR corrects Booking Compliance documentation and adds a report-capture workflow, but several localized wording and lifecycle details still need correction, and the capture path should verify that the intended workspace’s report is being published to the approved public storage location. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded documentation and publication-scope risks.

Two commits added and the title and body rewritten, because two report PRs merged after this one opened and both change files this branch was already rewriting.

Commit 2 addresses your review, @coderabbitai. All three findings held up against shelf.nu source and are applied. The check-in one was the substantive catch: partialCheckinBooking sets shouldAdjustEndDate on status === OVERDUE or on an early check-in carrying CheckinIntentEnum["with-adjusted-date"], and the overdue branch has no dialog at all, so the table listed only the paths a user is asked about and omitted the one that fires by itself. The lifecycle-terminology sentence you flagged in extending-booking-end-dates-in-shelf.mdx was also present verbatim in getting-started-with-reports.mdx, which was outside the file your rule fired on; both are fixed in the same commit.

Commit 3 covers shelf.nu#2961 and shelf.nu#2945. The important one is a live inaccuracy: getting-started-with-reports.mdx said "All workspace members with access to assets can open the Reports index", and #2961 has made that false. Reports were never in the sidebar for Base and Self-service; now the pages and both exports refuse them by direct link too.

#2945 is verified deployed rather than assumed. A read-only fetch of the three affected report CSVs on app.shelf.nu returns the six new columns:

asset-inventory   ...,Custodian,Quantity,Unit Value,Total Value,Created Date,QR Code ID
custody-snapshot  ...,Days Held,Units Held,Unit Value,Total Value

The remaining #2961 rollout (permissions matrix row, role sections, the toggles page, pricing.features.ts) is in #268 and touches no file here.

Tip

For best results, initiate chat on the files or code changes.

@carlosvirreira Thanks for the detailed verification.

The overdue check-in path in partialCheckinBooking is an important correction. It adjusts the end date without a dialog when status === OVERDUE. The updated table now distinguishes that automatic path from the user-selected early check-in path.

The duplicate lifecycle terminology fix covers both affected documentation pages. The Reports access correction also aligns the documentation with the deployed #2961 behavior.

Learning: In the Shelf booking lifecycle, `partialCheckinBooking` sets `shouldAdjustEndDate` when `status === OVERDUE`, without showing a dialog, or for an early check-in that uses `CheckinIntentEnum["with-adjusted-date"]`. Documentation about end-date adjustment must include the automatic overdue path as well as the user-selected early check-in path.

… placed pool

A live probe of /reports/distribution on the demo workspace read the loader
payload rather than the rendered summary, then computeDistributionByLocation
was read directly. Assets with NO placement rows land in No Location at full
value; a partly placed asset contributes only its placed units, and the
remainder is deliberately not attributed, because the bucket must match the
population behind /assets?location=without-location, whose filter is
assetLocations: { none: {} }.

Three files claimed the remainder was carried. Corrected in all three, with the
category-and-status guarantee kept, since those do account for every unit.

Third commit — a correction to my own claim, found by finally probing the thing I said was circumstantial.

The last open question on this branch was whether Asset Distribution's per-bucket money is live, since /reports/distribution renders only counts. A read-only probe of the demo workspace pulled the figures out of the loader payload instead of hunting for a tooltip, and the answer is yes on the money — and no on one sentence I wrote three times.

Reconciles, confirmed empirically. Headline Total Value $98,007.50. By Status: 75980.5 + 10042 + 11985. By Category: eleven buckets summing to 98007.5. By Location: 43710 + 25591 + 25068.5 + 2649 + 499 + 392 + 98 (Audio Booth's value is null) = 98007.5. All three add back to the headline on this workspace, and location counts 45 against 43 assets — two assets placed at two sites each, their value split rather than doubled. That is computeDistributionByLocation weighing asset.valuation * pivot.quantity (helpers.server.ts:3050-3056), while category and status use valuation * (quantity ?? 1) (:2979 and :3100).

Worth noting for the separate open question about location totals: this is NOT the location/service.server.ts SUM that double-counts a split pool. The report has its own path and it is correct.

What I got wrong. Three files said the unplaced remainder of a partly placed pool is carried under No Location "so the parts sum to the whole". It is not. computeDistributionByLocation sends an asset to without-location only when asset.assetLocations.length === 0; a partly placed asset goes through the per-pivot loop and its unplaced units are dropped, deliberately — the bucket has to describe the population behind /assets?location=without-location, whose filter is assetLocations: { none: {} } (asset/utils.server.ts:731-738). The demo workspace happens to hold no partly-placed asset with a valuation, which is exactly why the sum came out clean and why the claim survived a reconciliation check.

Corrected in content/features/reports.mdx, content/knowledge-base/getting-started-with-reports.mdx and content/updates/report-values-count-the-units.mdx. The guarantee is kept where it is true — category and status account for every unit — and the location exception is now stated plainly, including that a workspace with partly-placed stock will see the location breakdown total less than the headline.

No screenshot after all. The premise behind that follow-up was wrong: per-bucket value is not in a chart tooltip. distribution-donut.tsx contains no reference to totalValue, and asset-distribution-content.tsx reads it only for the headline KPI. The number reaches users through the CSV export, never on screen — so there is nothing to capture, and the "Screenshots still needed" item for it is withdrawn rather than deferred.
