Beacon of Good (or how to track prestige awards?)

I wanted to give my Druid a Beacon of Good (prestige award)... this a special kind of wayfinder. So in the tab Other I selected this... and I see it in the gear on paper, but how can I put a Ioun stone in it (it is not a location as far I can see it). And the effects of this wayfinder (casting detect evil and protection of evil), are these tracked somewhere?

Ps. And not all my components (like hound's blood) are on my gear sheet... is that right?
 
Select your wayfinder as the container for the ioun stone. And make sure the wayfinder is checked. Once that's done the spell like powers should show up in the spells tab.
 
Sorry, the problem is that the beacon of good is a "shining wayfinder". And even without a ioun stone in it it should work. The second problem is that it does not show up as an container :/ So even if I would like to put a ioun stone in it... I wouldn't know how :(
 
I'm sorry, but I am not entirely sure what your question is. You can't find the "Wayfinder, shining" item? You can find it but don't know how to put an item (like the ioun stone) into a container (like the wayfinder)? You've added a boon which should give you the item for free but you don't know how to add something for free?

Could you clarify?
 
@Aaron, sorry my fault... yes I can:

In Hero Lab (after also installing the "Pathfinder Society Field Guide) I can purchase in the Other tab the item "Beacon of Good" for two PP points as a member of the Silver Crusade fraction, it's a Silver Crusade Prestige Award

In the description (in Hero Lab and the Guide) it is described as:
"The Silver (there is a typo in the Hero Lab description with says Shinging Crusade) Crusade gives you a shining wayfinder emblazoned with the emblem of a silver dragon".

The description of the the wayfinder is:
"Shining Wayfinder
A shining wayfinder is a polished silver compass favored by members of the Shining Crusade. In addition to the usual functions of a wayfinder (including the ability to create light), a shining wayfinder can be used to cast detect evil—when so used, its needle points not to the north but rather to the nearest source of evil within 60 feet. Once per day, a shining wayfinder can be used to cast protection from evil upon the wayfinder’s bearer. A shining wayfinder functions only for a creature that is good-aligned. When held by an evil creature, the shining wayfinder’s needle spins in a frantic circle. When held by any creature that is both nonevil and nongood, the needle simply hangs limply, not pointing to anything at all (not even to true north)."

With that in mind (and the spell that are part of this specific wayfinder) I thought that the wayfinder would be part of my gear and that it would be a container for an Ioun Stone?! But nor the spells that are connected to it or the container are showing up. In my gear list the "Beacon of good" is mentioned, but nothing more than that!

So my two concrete questions are:
1) Why isn't it in my containers list
2) Why aren't the spells connected to it in my spellist

:)

Ah, I understand now. What you need to do is go to the magic tab and manually add the shining wayfinder, you should then see it as a container and if you equip it the item spells will be shown.
