Anne, One way to handle it is create an Inventory Location called "Missing/Stolen/Lost" (or separate locations for each one but then you REALLY have problems :) ) and then put those assets into that inventory location until they are found/retrieved/accepted as loss.

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.
