89	89	The **Lost & Found Item Log** serves as a secure and organised tool to document observations, updates, or other relevant details about each item as they arise over time. All entries in the Item Log are treated as confidential, accessible only to authorised personnel. This ensures privacy, particularly when sensitive details about items or their potential owners are involved. Additionally, the log entries are fully searchable through the **Search** box, making it easy to retrieve specific information when needed.

	96	+== Return of Items ==
95	95
	98	+When an item is either returned to its rightful owner or discarded for any reason deemed appropriate by the client (the convention organisers), the item's status should be updated to **R - Returned to Owner**.
	99	+
	100	+To save an item in this status, it is mandatory to add a **Log** comment detailing the circumstances of the return or disposal. Ideally, this comment should include specific information, such as the name or identifying details of the person the item was returned to, or a brief explanation of what was done with the item if it was discarded. Providing clear and thorough documentation in the Log at this point is a critical safeguard as well-documented entries can be invaluable in situations where questions or disputes arise. For instance, if an item is mistakenly handed to the wrong person, having a detailed log entry makes it much easier to trace what occurred and take corrective action if needed. A reliable audit trail can greatly assist in resolving potential issues.
