Handle a declined task handover without leaving work ownerless

Record the rejection reason and retain the sender’s task until another receiving plan is accepted.

Check receiving capacity against the offered work

Synthetic request HO-F offers a four-hour indivisible task to Sol today. Sol has two free hours and declines under the supplied no-partial-transfer rule. Ren is the current owner. Another candidate Jo has a confirmed four-hour slot tomorrow but has not yet accepted.

Close the declined request, not the work

  1. Record Sol’s decline and reason
  2. Close HO-F as declined
  3. Retain Ren’s active ownership
  4. Propose Jo’s tomorrow slot
  5. Wait for accepted replacement plan

A possible slot is not a receiving commitment. Keep the task with Ren until Jo explicitly accepts.

The handover request is resolved as declined, while the underlying work stays open. Keep the capacity reason so another planner does not send the same infeasible four-hour offer to Sol again.

Who owns the work after HO-F closes but HO-F2 remains proposed?

Ren. Neither the declined request nor the unaccepted proposal transfers ownership.
