Pooled Stock Held in Kits Now Counts Correctly

A quantity-tracked asset that lives in one or more kits is no longer double-counted on the asset page, no longer blocks its own booking at checkout, and prints one pull-list row per kit.

When a quantity-tracked asset sits in a kit, its units were being counted twice: once as held by the kit, and again as checked out. Three things went wrong because of it, and all three are fixed.

The asset page could show a negative Available. Kit-held units are counted once now, on the In kits row. Available subtracts custody, kit slices, and loose checkouts. Checked out (bookings) still shows every unit physically out, kit-held ones included, so that number is unchanged.

Checkout could refuse a booking holding its own kits. A booking with 4 sandbags booked loose plus 3 in one kit and 3 in another was told "requested 10, only 4 available" and could not be checked out at all, even though every one of those units belonged to it. It goes out in one action now.

The pull-list PDF hid where units came from. A pooled asset booked from several sources collapsed into one row showing a single quantity and a single kit name. The PDF prints one row per source instead, each with its own quantity and kit, so whoever is packing can see that 3 come from Grip A and 3 from Grip B.

Nothing to do on your side. The corrections apply to existing bookings and assets the next time you open them.
