Lost and Found

Lost and Found is a reliable and handy software solution developed for small or large companies with the sole purpose of maintaining a database of lost and found items of both employees and visitors.

The installation of the application requires you to select the network drive of the company's server or shared computer where you want to host the database. By doing so you enable access to that database for all registered users. Upon initializing, it is necessary that you enter your organization name, address, telephone, email and web URL because these details are going to show up on all reports and documents. Equally important is to fill the database with lost object records.

For each lost object a very detailed case file is created that contains the item type, its distinctive features such as model or color, the date when it was reported as lost and the contact information of the owner. Searching for a lost item is very fast because each case has an unique ID number that remains registered until the case is closed. You can update the status of an item from lost to found, as well as add information about the person who discovered it and the location from where it was retrieved. You have to be extra careful when deleting case records from the database because the removal is permanent, unless you use the Purge option. More than 20 reports can be used to efficiently keep track of both lost and found items. Whenever you need to add new records or update existing ones, you also have the option of saving them as HTML or TXT files, as well as review and print them. To prevent unauthorized access to the database record cases, you can enable the password protection function that allows you to assign a security key to each employee, yourself included.

All things considered, Lost and Found is worth a shot because it has a series of features that help you manage all the lost items found on your property.
