When a user reports a lost device, you can set its status to <font color="#323232">Lost</font>. Setting this status does not have a functional effect on the phone. It just flags the phone as lost for tracking purposes and to ensure that it appears in the Lost Phones screen.

**Procedure&#xA0;**

1. Go to <font color="#323232">Device &amp; Users &gt; Devices</font>.
2. Select the check box for the device.
3. Select <font color="#323232">Actions &gt; Lost</font> from the <font color="#323232">Actions</font> menu.
4. In the displayed dialog, confirm the user and device information and enter a note.
5. Click <font color="#323232">Lost</font>.
   The entry for this device will appear with a status of “Lost.” Use the Found action to undo this status. See [Found](docId\:LHUdfozYfhBJDrhpx3JAR)
