Bug Description
3.6.5
When editing an item status directly via catalog to 'Lost and Paid', the username of the staff logged in appears under 'Edited By' in Item Status.
But when an item is paid for via Patron Account > Bills, the value of 'Edited By' is from 'admin'.
Is there a way to change it so it reflects the username of the staff member who processed the payment?

If I'm reading things correctly, it does not look like the item's editor is updated when the bill is paid and the item's status is changed to Lost and Paid.
The Library Setting to use the Lost and Paid status is consulted in CircCommon.pm and only appears to update the status field, not the editor or the edit_date. The "admin" editor you are seeing on the Lost and Paid items likely comes from the Mark Lost action trigger when the item was marked Lost.
It could be useful to store the user that processed the payment, but it's worth noting that for credit card payments, the patron is recorded as the accepting user.
