How can empty thermobox returns be tracked and planned?

At delivery, link each box ID to its return point and responsible role. Planned and actual return times reveal boxes waiting at branches.

Short answer

At delivery, log box ID, return point, collection date and owner; add time and condition on return. For a delay, match point and carrier records before assuming loss.

If empty boxes disappear from view after delivery, it is unclear where usable stock is waiting.
