It would be handy if items could be marked as a lost status from the transfer page. Having a "cancel and mark lost" button/option would be helpful since that is one reason people might be cancelling a transfer. Similarly to the Holds Queue cancel button you could preset a particular lost value.

We have items that have been in transit for several years. This would help remove these, as they are not likely to be found. And it they actually are on the shelf, we'll find them (or a patron will) which will automatically remove the lost status when checked in. 
The current 'Cancel Transfer' button just cancels the transfer (which can be helpful in some situations), but if we are canceling the transfer because the item is missing from the collection (or as I am seeing, in transit since 2019, 2020, or 2021), we currently have to open the record in a new tab to mark it missing (canceling the transfer removes it from the transferstoreceive.pl page, so good luck finding it again if you didn't write it down!). Having the option to take care of both together would simplify the process.
