Ok, how about we start with a basic framework and begin to fill in the details?
1) Fetch the cases, that are to be delivered
- Do we have a vehicle for this w/o Jake? (Solution: Jake is still around as an NPC? Otherwise, Jazz also has a car.)
2) Get the cases to the restaurant
- Problem: Double-A neighborhood
3) Get inside the restaurant
- via rooftop access
- Problem: Security System (Solution: Jazz will handle this via Matrix)
- Problem: Getting on the roof (with the cases)
- Problem: Getting the locks open (is an Autopicker enough here?)
4) Get to the kitchen
- Do we know the way from rooftop access to the kitchen?
5) Swap out the cases
- That should be pretty straightforward from here
6) Leave with the other cases
- That should be pretty straightforward from here
7) Deliver the other cases
- That should be pretty straightforward from here

On the roof top access, Kit can use shapeshift to get in to places.
The concerns are can she open a way in without setting off any alarms. I assume that fire regulations mean that she should be able to get out.
And of course any info on anti vermin measures would be helpful.

Ok. Three players + 1 NPC (Jake). You should have everything you need to complete this run, except perhaps some of the finer details 
Unless there is an object or more preparations, my next post will be to the arrival back at the site for the run itself. Please continue to discuss the plan or designate a plan as required.
Thanks!

For those keeping track, the Puyallup series has been running continuously for 5 years.
Jazz will be on site (probably in Jake's van), and hack from there... so she is around in case she is needed. 
As for the lock... Jazz has an Autopicker 6 (IIRC, there was a non-electronic lock there, right?).
Jazz should be able to silence any alarms from the Matrix.

Wow!
Sorry for the delay in posting. I was hoping more interaction between the PCs.
Jazz - Security systems check.
Security Systems + Logic = 1 hit
I actually think we did check that part already, but I can't quite remember the details.

The 1 hit for specific details about the lock and the lock picker's chances on it yield no additional information.

Getting closer. Feel free to elaborate on the exit plan as well as the swap.
The easiest would probably be to enter through the door on the ground floor. Even though it is better protected, there are a lot less grey areas. 
Otherwise, could an astral scouting run help with getting an idea how difficult it is to get to the restaurant from the roof access?
Did we get a number of floors the building has?

Astral scouting won't do well on a building. Funny enough, there's lot of gray in astral space where buildings are concerned. QUOTE (Thanee @ Apr 26 2012, 04:34 PM)

Hmm... I must have missed that image, when you linked it earlier.
I really don't see how going on the roof makes much sense then.
Was the Matrix network Jazz was in from the restaurant only or from the building? If it was the first, I might need to get into another Matrix system as well there...

wow yeah working ten stories down from the roof to gain access to the reastaurant might be a problem, when you shape shift can you take on a animal smaller then your size like a rat? maybe KIT can stay inside until close and then open the roll up cage for us once Jazz disables the matrix security.
So the building the restaurant is in is 10 stories tall?
Sorry, living in Texas, most restaurants are only 1 story tall.
What else is in the building?
Offices? Apartments?
Maybe we could delivery the package to the building and then slip it in the restaurant.
Also might be able to use the wet wall or vent system to move from the top to the bottom of the building.

There is a hotel above the restaurant.
Jazz was in the Restaurant's node, not the hotel.

I figure checking on the hotel security is worth it.
We might be lucky and find out they are sloppy.
And of course Kit is always interested in any anti pest measures being employed.

Heh. Was that hotel ever mentioned before? It's definitely new to me.
This really sounds to me like the only reasonable way in is through the ground-level entrance to the restaurant.
Ok, guess we will have to clear some more things up before we actually start then...
Is that restaurant part of the hotel, or a seperate business?
Also, see IC, if we want to make sure, the hotel security won't cause us any trouble, it surely is best, if Jazz also takes a peek into their Matrix as well.
We still have a couple hours between that last meeting and the run, so those could be used to search for an exploit (probing the target).

You can get 3 hours of probing. Give me some rolls.

Going for Security Access (+3).
Those rolls are not the best...
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3502017/
8 hits total after 3 attempts.
Bye
Thanee
Wow... That looks like some of my rolls...
8 hits vs Firewall + Analyze + Security Access = No vulnerability found.
In reviewing the time, team splits at 21:06. Jazz lives nearby and could be home by 21:20. She can do checks at 22:20, 23:20, 00:20, 01:20. She can make one more roll before an interruption occurs. I would allow a fifth roll around 02:40 if required (delay due to switching locations from apartment to Jake's van and so forth)

Ok, so... entrances...
Roof access is out, as it is quite far away from the restaurant.
That leaves the main entrance or the entrance from the dock. There is also this large industrial, roll-up type with no apparent way to unlock it delivery dock.
I would favor the dock-side, as that will likely have less camera coverage.

Some information from older posts...
There was that link to the restaurant/hotel picture/map:
Must have missed that, back then, because those ten stories didn't seem familiar at all.
But it looks like that parking lot allows us to have the car around quite inconspicuously.

"Anyway. Here's the job in a nutshell: I need a number of cases of items *appropriated*. I will supply replacements to be left in their stead. These cases will need to be dealt with carefully and need to be brought to my delegate in tact. The security will be light, but the neighborhood is double-A. It is imperative that you are not detected and that the switch is completed. The job pays twelve-thousand nuyen, two thousand up front, split between you as you see fit." [Payment was raised to 15k after Negotiations.]
"The job is pretty simple. Hours ago a supply of live, colossal, Dublin Bay prawns were delivered to the Lake Union McCormick and Smicks. These prawns will be used Friday night. Preparation will begin Friday morning. I have a set of crates to switch out. I would prefer the switch to occur after closing Thursday night, before preparation begins Friday morning."

Jake does not expect to see guards giving the security rating. In high end neighborhoods, people don't want to see many security guards, they just want them to be there if they are needed. He expects the guards to be watching via cameras from somewhere secure. With expected Knight Errant response time, they may not even be nearby.
Jenny does spot several obvious cameras around the building. With her vision enhancement and low light, she makes out a couple of not so obvious cameras directed towards the entrance and street.
In reviewing the footage, Jazz notes both physical triple-tumbler deadbolts and a maglock on the main doors. The doors from the dock are the same. The door at the delivery dock is a large industrial, roll-up type with no apparent way to unlock it. There is a door on the roof with a considerably less secure lock.

Let's work through that IC.
did yall want me to post my spell list so we know what kind of spells i have at my dissposal?
The hotel was surely a miss on my part in the description. As the the cameras, using the exploit to access the hotel system will allow Jazz to identify if there are any cameras not controlled between the 2 systems.
Cool?

Sounds good. Then we can see how we can avoid those.

Well we need to get through a firedoor maybe as long as jazz can hacpk the system to not set off right. There would be a emergency exit for the place right. If it serves the public and in a decent area would have to be kept up to code.
Hotel Node:
Stealth(5) vs Firewall(4) + Analyze(4) [3,6,3,3,6,3,5,1] = 3 hits
Jazz's Reality Filter(3) vs System(4) + Response(4) [6,1,1,4,3,2,3,5] = 2 hits
Thanee - Please write a post with a new description for the node. The receptionist is part of the node. Only the security guard (IC) and the customer (another user) will not be overwritten by your Reality Filter.

1) What is he doing currently? (if that is ok, as a question)
2) Access Level (standard, security, admin)

The fact that the object is a persona/user icon is a freebie from your reality filter.
1) What is he doing currently: He is accessing the reservation system.
2) Access Level (standard, security, admin): User
3) Programs run by the persona or agent: None
4) Response Rating A persona does not have a response rating.
