Define the required identity check, accessory count and return inspection before releasing the asset for another customer. Keep physical return separate from ready-for-rental status. The acceptance scenario should show how a defect, missing component or cleaning requirement affects the next commitment, with an accountable decision rather than an automatic assumption that returned means available.
Understand the decision
An asset comes back before its next reservation but needs inspection and has a missing accessory. The booking desk sees it on the premises and wants to promise immediate pickup. The review should test how operational readiness changes availability and how an affected customer commitment is reviewed.
Work through the requirements
- Verify asset identity and returned accessories
- Record the inspection and outstanding work
- Approve readiness before the next release
| Record or decision | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Return receipt | Records the actual unit and time |
| Inspection outcome | Shows condition and required work |
| Readiness approval | Authorizes return to rentable availability |

Watch for this failure
Physical return and rental readiness are different events. Do not reduce inspection, cleaning or maintenance to an assumed time buffer unless the responsible team has shown that the proposed process satisfies its actual release requirements for each asset category.
Continue the evaluation
This example defines what to verify, rather than promising a particular Odoo feature. Keep a record of the demonstrated result, configuration, unresolved gaps and person who accepts it.
