Product change summary

Two halves of the same mistake. Shelf answered questions about individual booking items by asking a question about the booking: does it have any progressive-checkout records? The Check out button writes none, so a booking checked out with the button and later given one scanned handover misread every item the button had sent out.

#2951 fixed the check-in eligibility half: a customer had 105 of 107 items refused while the page showed them all as Checked out.

#2982 fixes the completion half, and it is worse than a wrong page. One scanned row switched the booking into "only session-recorded units matter" mode, so quantity-tracked stock the button had dispatched stopped gating completion entirely. The booking auto-completed on the last individual check-in while those units were still with the custodian. Check-in is only offered while a booking is Ongoing or Overdue (bookings.$bookingId.overview.checkin-assets.tsx:82), so there was then no way to record the return: the units stayed CHECKED_OUT against a booking that had already closed. Completion is now judged per line from that line's own dispatch record, which is the same source the check-in guard reads, so an item gates completion exactly when it is checkinable.

#2996 is the third and last hole in the same wall, and it survived the rewrite the other two produced. An ONGOING or OVERDUE booking still accepts a check-out, so an item that came back can go out again on the booking that is still running. On that second departure the marker write was scoped to checkedOutAt: null while the counter beside it covered every departing slice, so checkedOutQuantity grew and checkedInAt stayed set from the first trip; the completion gate read that stale stamp as proof the item was back and closed the booking on gear that was physically out. Quantity lines had a third version of the same error, capped at the booked quantity, which is too small for two trips. The gate now requires a check-in no older than the departure it answers, and measures a quantity line against everything that actually left.

#2982 also stops a closed booking from claiming everything came back: a Complete or Archived booking keeps dispatched-but-unreturned rows visibly Fully out (or Partial), and only genuinely record-less legacy data still collapses to Returned.

Content changes

Content enhancements

  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — new Mixing All-at-Once and Scanning on One Booking section (#2951). The article had a "The Mixed State" section, but it was about items that never left; nothing covered mixing the two checkout styles, which is the ordinary shape and the one that broke.
  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — new When a Mixed Booking Finishes subsection (#2982): completion is judged line by line, quantity obligations are counted in units from both sources, and a note for anyone whose booking closed itself while stock was out. It says plainly that new bookings cannot end that way but an already-closed one needs its counts corrected by hand, because check-in is no longer reachable on it.
  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — new What a Finished Booking Shows subsection (#2982), including the legacy carve-out so nobody reads an old all-Returned booking as a contradiction.
  • content/knowledge-base/introduction-to-bookings.mdx — the Completed state now says what actually has to be true to reach it, and why the booking waits rather than closing early.
  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — new Sending an Item Out a Second Time section (#2996). Nothing on the site described a repeat handover, which is an ordinary workflow the booking status guard has always allowed. It names the workflow first, then what both trips mean for completion, then the cumulative unit count, then the symptom callout for anyone whose booking closed on a second trip.
  • content/updates/a-booking-waits-for-everything-that-went-out.mdx — new An item can go out twice, and both trips count section (#2996), and the recovery paragraph now says "on either route". The entry's date moved 2026-09-03 → 2026-09-07, since it now covers a fix that deployed on 2026-09-04.
  • content/knowledge-base/introduction-to-bookings.mdxupdated: moved 2026-09-03 → 2026-09-07. Conflict avoidance, not content: #277 edits a different section of the same file and sets that line to the same value, so whichever merges second merges clean.

Factual corrections

  • The lifecycle bar has four buckets, not three. booking-lifecycle-progress.tsx shipped with Booked / Checked out / Returned on 2026-06-15 (#2625) and was changed to Booked (gray) / Partial (amber) / Fully out (violet) / Returned (green) a week later by the Wave B quantity work (c455d7a6, 2026-06-22). Three pages still carried the old three names. #2982 makes Partial and Fully out reachable at COMPLETE too, so the vocabulary had to be right before describing what a finished booking shows.
    • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — bucket list rewritten, with the tooltip quoted verbatim: "Partial means a quantity-tracked asset has some, but not all, units out."
    • content/knowledge-base/introduction-to-bookings.mdx — Ongoing state.
    • content/features/bookings.mdx — progressive checkout paragraph.
  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx"Once items start leaving, the booking's asset list adds 'Checked out on' and 'Checked out by' columns ... so you can see exactly when each item left and who processed it." Both halves overpromise. The columns render only when checkedOutAssetIds.length > 0 (booking-assets-column.tsx:118), and the cell values come from PartialBookingCheckout records, so an item that left with the plain Check out button renders <EmptyTableValue />. A booking checked out entirely that way shows no columns at all. Confirmed live: a read-only probe of a Complete demo booking returned headers Name, Qty, Category, Tags, Location, Checked in on, Checked in by and no checkout pair.
  • Quoted the two refusals verbatim, from service.server.ts: "Cannot check in assets that were never checked out: [names]." and "These assets are already checked in." The second is new in #2951: re-checking-in a reconciled slice used to be told it was never checked out, which was the right refusal for the wrong reason.

New content

  • content/updates/checkout-is-recorded-on-each-item.mdx — changelog for #2951.
  • content/updates/a-booking-waits-for-everything-that-went-out.mdx — changelog for #2982. Well above the bar: real bookings closed themselves and stranded real stock, and the only remedy for an affected booking is a manual correction.

Screenshots still needed (manual capture required)

  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — the article's two TODO markers from #2625 (the Check Out dropdown, and the lifecycle bar) are still unresolved, and a shot of the Checked out on / by columns would be the best image for this change. A read-only probe found all 20 demo bookings are Complete and none carries progressive-checkout records, so none of the three states exists to photograph. Reserving and checking out a booking would produce them and would leave real gear reading as checked out in a shared workspace, so it was not done. Both update entries reuse /images/updates/partial-check-ins.jpg rather than pointing at an image that does not exist.

Review notes

  • Deliberately not claimed: #2951 left populating the blank "Checked out on / by" columns from the new per-line markers to a separate PR. #2982 is not that PR either: it reads the markers for completion and for the lifecycle buckets, but does not touch booking-assets-column.tsx. So the carve-out this PR documents is still current behaviour.
  • content/knowledge-base/partial-check-ins-efficiently-handle-incomplete-returns.mdx carries the same three-bucket description and is being edited in content: custody a kit put there is released through the kit, and a kit is released from what the booking recorded #269, so the correction is landing there rather than conflicting here.
  • Its step "Auto-completion: Booking automatically completes when last asset is scanned" was checked and left alone. It describes the intended behaviour, which is what #2982 makes actually happen; it never described the bug.
  • Left content/updates/progressive-checkout.mdx (June 2026) alone. It carries the same overpromise about the two columns, but it is a dated changelog entry and rewriting one is the standing unresolved policy call.
  • #2996's line was already written, and was not wrong. The branch already said "A line that did leave has to be reconciled before the booking can close" — the intended rule, made true for a single trip by #2951 and #2982. It stayed false for a second departure until #2996 deployed. Nothing was retracted; what was added is that the rule now holds across repeat handovers too.
  • Skipped the alternatives sweep for all three PRs: mixing checkout styles and completing a booking honestly are correctness fixes to a capability content/features/bookings.mdx already claims, not differentiators.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Updated booking lifecycle guidance to cover Partial, Fully out, and Returned states.
    • Clarified quantity-tracked checkouts, mixed checkout methods, completion rules, session details, and check-in errors.
  • Product Updates

    • Booking completion is now determined per item and quantity, with accurate line-level statuses for completed and archived bookings.
    • Checkout is recorded separately for each item across all checkout methods.
    • Partially returned quantity-tracked items remain available for check-in, with clearer handling for already returned items.

Triggered by: Shelf-nu/shelf.nu#2951

One scanned handover on a booking that was checked out with the button
made every item on it read as never checked out. Checkout is now
recorded per line of the booking.

Also corrects the Checked out on/by columns: they are fed by scanning
and bulk sessions, so an item that left with the plain Check out button
shows a dash, and a booking checked out entirely that way does not show
the columns at all.

The booking guide may imply that the first check-in completes a partially checked-out booking, which could mislead users managing outstanding items. Update the Ongoing-state wording to make completion conditional on reconciling all checked-out lines.

Triggered by: Shelf-nu/shelf.nu#2982

The same booking-level reading #2951 fixed for check-in eligibility also
decided completion. One scanned handover put a booking into "only scanned
units count" mode, so quantity-tracked stock the Check out button had sent
out stopped gating completion. The booking closed on the last individual
return with the units still out, and check-in is only offered on Ongoing or
Overdue, so there was no way left to record them back. Completion is now
judged per line from that line's own record.

Also corrects the lifecycle bar's buckets site-wide. Three pages said
Booked / Checked out / Returned; the legend has read Booked / Partial /
Fully out / Returned since 2026-06-22 (shelf.nu#2625 Wave B). #2982 makes
Partial and Fully out reachable at COMPLETE as well, so the vocabulary had
to be right.

Second commit added and the title and body rewritten. shelf.nu#2982 merged after this PR opened and fixes the other half of the same defect: the booking-level reading that #2951 removed from check-in eligibility was also deciding completion, so a booking that mixed the Check out button with one scanned handover closed itself while quantity-tracked stock was still out. It lands here rather than in its own PR because it rewrites the same article and the same updated: line.

The commit also corrects a stale claim that predates both app PRs: three pages describe the lifecycle bar as Booked / Checked out / Returned. That was true of the bar shipped on 2026-06-15 in shelf.nu#2625, and stopped being true a week later when the Wave B quantity work (c455d7a6, 2026-06-22) split it into Booked / Partial / Fully out / Returned. It is fixed here on progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx, introduction-to-bookings.mdx and features/bookings.mdx. partial-check-ins-efficiently-handle-incomplete-returns.mdx carries it too, but that file is open in #269, so the correction goes there instead of conflicting here.

@carlosvirreira I found one remaining documentation issue.

  • P2 — Correct the lifecycle-bar names in content/solutions/equipment-check-in.mdx Line 101. This evergreen solution page still says Booked / Checked out / Returned. The current lifecycle bar uses Booked / Partial / Fully out / Returned. Pull request #269 does not modify this page. Users can therefore still receive obsolete lifecycle guidance from a current product page.

Learning: For Shelf bookings, checkout state and completion are evaluated per booking line. A line that was dispatched must be reconciled before completion, while a line that was never dispatched does not block completion. This supports bookings that mix all-at-once checkout with scanned checkout.

Merged main in (5df43ba). The branch was cut on 2026-08-28 and content/features/bookings.mdx had since gained the Companion calendar sentence from #259, which collided with my updated: bump. Resolved by keeping both: main's sentence stands untouched, the date reads 2026-09-03. CI is green again (Deploy + Product claims), which it could not run before because the PR was unmergeable.

Addresses CodeRabbit on #266. The Ongoing paragraph said a Check-in action
moves the booking to Completed, full stop, two sentences after saying the
booking can be Ongoing with items still on the shelf. It completes only
once every line that went out is reconciled (isBookingFullyCheckedIn gates
the ONGOING/OVERDUE to COMPLETE transition).
Triggered by: Shelf-nu/shelf.nu#2996

Third fix in the same defect family as #2951 and #2982, which this branch
already covers. An ONGOING or OVERDUE booking still accepts a check-out,
so an item that came back can depart again. On that second departure the
marker write was scoped to rows with checkedOutAt: null, so the counter
grew while the check-in stamp stayed set; the completion gate read the
stale stamp as proof the item was back and let the booking close on gear
that was out. Quantity lines were additionally capped at the booked
quantity, too small for two trips.

- progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx: new section on a second departure
- a-booking-waits-for-everything-that-went-out.mdx: a section for the
  second-departure route, dated forward to 2026-09-07 since #2996
  deployed on 2026-09-04
- introduction-to-bookings.mdx: updated: aligned to 2026-09-07, matching
  the value website-v2#277 sets on the same line

Third commit added. shelf.nu#2996 merged and deployed on 2026-09-04 (c5342ece, Deploy green) and it is the third fix in the defect family this branch already documents, so it belongs on this branch rather than in a competing PR against the same files.

What #2996 fixes. An ONGOING or OVERDUE booking still accepts a check-out — partialCheckoutBooking refuses only DRAFT, COMPLETE, CANCELLED and ARCHIVED. So an item that came back can be sent out again on the booking that is still running. Three things then disagreed about that second trip:

  1. The markers stopped moving with the counter. The marker write in checkoutBookingWritesWithinTx was scoped to checkedOutAt: null, while the counter next to it covered every departing slice. A slice already stamped from its first trip never matched, so checkedOutQuantity grew and checkedInAt stayed set. It now keys on the ids departingSlices already read, so both writes cover the same rows by construction.
  2. The gate read checkedInAt alone. if (ba.checkedInAt) continue skipped the slice because the check-in that closed the previous trip was still there. It now requires checkedInAt >= checkedOutAt, and holds the partial-checkin session fallback to the same test.
  3. Quantity obligation was capped at the booked quantity. Right for one trip, too small for two. It now takes max(min(dispatched, booked), cumulative checkedOutQuantity) and compares against reconciled units read straight from consumptionLog rather than through computeBookingAssetRemaining, which clamps the same way.

Why this branch's existing copy needed the addition rather than a correction. The line already here — "A line that did leave has to be reconciled before the booking can close" — was the intended rule, and #2951 + #2982 made it true for a single trip. It was still false for a second departure until #2996 shipped. Nothing on the branch had to be retracted; what was missing was that the rule now also holds across repeat handovers, and that a quantity line is measured against everything that left rather than against what it booked.

Changes in this commit

  • content/knowledge-base/progressive-checkout-of-bookings.mdx — new section "Sending an Item Out a Second Time", placed after "When a Mixed Booking Finishes" and before "Best Practices". Names the ordinary workflow first (gear back at lunch, out again for the afternoon), then what both trips mean for completion, then the cumulative unit count, then the symptom callout in the same voice as the two already on the page.
  • content/updates/a-booking-waits-for-everything-that-went-out.mdx — new section "An item can go out twice, and both trips count", and the "If this already happened to you" paragraph now says "on either route". Entry date moved 2026-09-03 → 2026-09-07, since it now also covers a fix that deployed on 2026-09-04.
  • content/knowledge-base/introduction-to-bookings.mdxupdated: moved 2026-09-03 → 2026-09-07. This is deliberate conflict avoidance, not a content change: #277 (shelf.nu#2975, revert-to-draft notifications) edits a different section of the same file and sets that same line to 2026-09-07. Identical on both sides, so whichever merges second merges clean. The updated: collision is exactly what needed the main merge on this branch earlier.

Deliberately not done. No alternatives, solutions, industries or pricing edits — this is a defect fix in a flow the comparison pages do not describe at that depth, and no page anywhere claimed the old behaviour. No screenshots: reproducing the state means checking a real booking out, back in, and out again in the shared demo workspace, which holds live gear.

check-product-claims passes on all three changed files. Ready for re-review — @coderabbitai review.

@carlosvirreira The third-commit documentation matches the merged behavior in shelf.nu#2996. The repeat-handover and cumulative quantity-tracked reconciliation descriptions are accurate.

One existing finding remains:

  • P2 — Correct the lifecycle-bar names in content/solutions/equipment-check-in.mdx Line 101. This page still says Booked / Checked out / Returned. The current lifecycle bar uses Booked / Partial / Fully out / Returned. Pull request #269 owns the same correction in content/knowledge-base/partial-check-ins-efficiently-handle-incomplete-returns.mdx, but it does not change this solution page.

The new text is otherwise consistent with the per-line completion behavior and the repeat-handover fix.

Learning: For Shelf bookings, an item can be checked out, checked in, and checked out again while its booking is `ONGOING` or `OVERDUE`. Completion must evaluate the current departure: a check-in only reconciles a departure when it is at or after that departure, and quantity-tracked lines must reconcile cumulative dispatched units across all departures rather than only the booked quantity.

Learning: For Shelf bookings, checkout state and completion are evaluated per booking line. A line that was dispatched must be reconciled before completion, while a line that was never dispatched does not block completion. This supports bookings that mix all-at-once checkout with scanned checkout.
