Simple and effective.
 To finish the rental and mark the products returned, choose Bookings > Active > [The booking you want to end] and click return from the bottom right corner. The rental is now returned and will be found under the Completed tab.

Note that once a rental is returned, the possible security deposit is released. So before confirming the return, make sure all your equipment has been returned in good condition.
