A kit needs composition, holder and return checks, distinguishing missing tools from items sent for repair.
Index
A team can finish a service visit while tools remain at the customer site; closing the visit must not close kit custody.
The rule that changes the scope
A kit needs composition, holder and return checks, distinguishing missing tools from items sent for repair.
Standard inventory covers registration; a targeted application tracks visit-specific kits and incomplete returns.
A kit can belong to a team or a person, but that choice must remain consistent during the trip. Define transfers between technicians working on the same visit. Checking should allow a missing item to be recorded without preventing receipt of the remainder. An incomplete kit returns as an incomplete set; the application must not automatically permit another checkout simply because the associated service visit was closed.
Specify operational deliverables
- Record the kit composition checked out before the team departs for service.
- Show returned items and those remaining with the holder or at the destination.
- Associate tool swaps with the kit without erasing its initial checkout.
Test the exception before acceptance
In a hypothetical scenario, a technician returns part of a kit and swaps a damaged tool; checking must explain the balance without wrongly closing custody.
