RequiredCoreAnswers before you get stuck
Why can’t a member see an item?
Items limited to roles are hidden from members without those roles.
What happens when a request is approved?
Stock is deducted, the item is recorded as issued to the member, and the member is notified.
When should something be in Assets instead?
Use Quartermaster for stocked gear by size. Use Assets for individually tracked equipment with its own record.
