The season ends. Clean gear comes back into inventory immediately, while damaged or missing gear stays visible as separate follow-up work.

Guide has checked-out kit
Ends with
Closed receipt in return history
A guide finishes the season with a Seasonal Kit checked out. Operations accepts the physical return from a dedicated page: clean items close immediately, while damaged or missing items remain open for a separate responsibility decision without hiding the completed physical receipt.
Operations selects Return kit from the checked-out Seasonal Kit in the guide's Gear profile.
The page is a focused task workspace with its own URL, not a modal inside the guide profile.
Every checked-out row starts as Returned; clean rows stay collapsed and only exceptions need quantity or context changes.
This is the key moment: usable items return to Fishing inventory, issue items stay unavailable, and no physical outcome creates a charge by itself.
A clean return reconciles immediately; a return with issues is accepted but keeps those issues in the separate Season-close issues section.
Responsibility and any financial movement are deliberate decisions made after physical receipt, not side effects of marking an item damaged or missing.
Clean returns reach this state immediately; issue returns reach it automatically when the final follow-up is resolved, with the receipt still visible in Return history.
Accepts the physical return, records only the exceptions, and resolves any later responsibility follow-up.
Receives usable items back into the shared Fishing inventory and keeps damaged or missing items unavailable.
Closes clean returns automatically, keeps issue follow-ups separate, and preserves the final receipt in Return history.
Returns the physical kit and can see whether any season-close responsibility remains open.
Receives only a separately authorized financial movement, never the raw physical return outcome.
A focused return page, separate Season-close issues, and closed receipts in Return history.

Usable items restored to Fishing inventory and issue items kept unavailable.
Why: Keep shared availability aligned with what physically came back.
Whether the Seasonal Kit return is closed or still has responsibility follow-up.
Why: Know whether any season-close gear issue remains open.
Only separately confirmed financial movements, never raw return outcomes.
Why: Keep financial responsibility independent from physical receipt.
The accepted return, remaining follow-ups, automatic closure, and durable receipt history.
Why: Preserve one trustworthy lifecycle without requiring a redundant manual close.
Physical receipt and responsibility are separate: clean returns close automatically, issue returns close automatically after the final follow-up, and every receipt remains traceable.
