1. Weekly Update Deadline: All equipment must be logged by Friday EOD each week.
2. Check Master List First: Always verify Equipment_ID exists in the Equipment_Master_List before logging a new checkout.
3. Mark Damaged/Lost Immediately: If equipment is damaged or lost, update Status_at_Checkout and notify marketing manager within 24 hours.
