Lost & Found

Overview

The Lost & Found module on the iHospitality Hub enables staff to report guest lost-item claims and to record and manage items recovered on property. Both workflows are completed directly from a shared kiosk device, with each report or record time-stamped and attributed to the employee who created it.

This module only appears on hubs where Lost & Found was checked under Hub Modules, and only for employees whose User Role has Can iHospitality Hub Login enabled — see the iHospitality Hub – Setup page.

Lost & Found Screen

After signing in and tapping Lost & Found, the employee sees two options.

What this screen means: pick Report Lost Item when a guest has lost something, or Found Items to log or manage an item that's been found.

Option	What it does
Report Lost Item	Log a report for an item a guest has lost.
Found Items	Record a newly found item, or view/manage items already logged as found.

Important Notes

• A lost report is tied to the guest who reported it (Guest Details); a found report is tied to the employee who found it (Found By) — they capture different information because they start from different situations.
• Found Items tracks two separate locations — Location Found (where it turned up) and Location Stored (where it's being kept now) — don't confuse the two when logging a found item.
• The eye icon on a Lost Item card opens that report's full details; not every card shows it, which may depend on whether the report has additional detail to view.
• This module only appears on hubs where Lost & Found was checked under Hub Modules — see the iHospitality Hub – Setup page.
