Item Custody works like an infinite Check-out. It lets you register the equipment you have loaned, to whom you loaned it, without having to select a return date or location. It’s ideal for when you’re lending out equipment for a really short or really long duration.

If you'd like to allow you and other users to release custody of items at a different location than the original one, you can follow these steps.
