What can a stock correction teach an agent about operational handovers?

At a retail distribution centre, a receiving clerk records a returned item against `RET-2187`. The return passes inspection, but the inventory screen still shows it as unavailable. During handover, the outgoing shift leaves a note asking the stock controller to increase saleable stock.

The incoming shift has already submitted `MOV-0412`, moving the same item from quarantine to saleable stock. That movement is accepted but has not yet appeared in the receiving screen. An agent receives the handover note and a request to correct the balance.

The useful state change is from quarantined stock to saleable stock through the existing movement. An additional positive adjustment would count the item twice. The agent checks the linked movement, identifies the pending update and leaves the adjustment request awaiting confirmation rather than creating another movement. The stock controller receives an explanation tied to both records.

This scenario teaches that operational discrepancies can come from delayed visibility across teams, not just incorrect source entries. A generated task could vary the handover note, movement status and screen freshness independently. The evaluation then asks whether the agent establishes which business event has already occurred before deciding that a new correction is necessary.
