Segregation of duties

Some operations deliberately require two different people:

• Adjustment — a staff member creates the request; a manager (or admin) approves it. The same person cannot approve their own adjustment.
• Stock count — a staff member performs the count; a manager closes the session and posts the results. The same person cannot count and close the same session.
• Transfer — one person sends; a different person at the destination confirms receipt.

This design prevents a single person from manipulating stock without oversight.
