Step-by-step

- Pick the key by storage location or barcode.
- Select the recipient (resident, contractor, staff).
- Optional: capture a photo of ID.
- On return, find the entry and click Mark returned.
- At shift end, open Reconcile to see what's still out.

Multi-building tips
Inventory is per building.

Optional alert when a key has been out longer than the configured limit.
