What have been done:

1. Added logging for specials, approved or rejected.
   Each special item now is logged in the debug mode.

Solution:

1. The lombok dependency needs to be added to the POM of the domain module.

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
    <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
    <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
