A couple of things that may be helpful. We have Status Codes for Missing and for Stolen. Generally, we will have a police report for stolen and that can be scanned and placed in an attachment field for that asset. This also helps when auditors are examining the records.
For Missing, I have created a filter which triggers whenever someone (other than AR_ESCALATOR) modifies a record listed as missing (Status Code is Missing) and alerts/emails our central assets custodian of who modified the record. That property custodian can follow-up with the person updating the record and determine if the item has been located.

Our folks just did a physical inventory and there are some assets that are missing. They are asking for a status reason on "Missing" for the status of "Deployed". Seems sensible enough to me, but I was wondering how other folks handle that situation.
