Encountered a bug with this on my first playthrough - did all eight messes as per the guide above and I'm stuck on 87% progress on console. I looked on the PC version and the achievement is showing as unlocked in-game on there, but nothing on my actual profile. Repeated the steps a few times on console and PC, but no luck.
Going to finish the rest of the game and see if I can come back and get on another playthrough, but if anyone has encountered this and fixed it, any tips would be much appreciated.

There are 8 places in total, and only 5 places can be recorded at a time, so files need to be read (save the task after obtaining it, record five places, read the file, and then record the other three).
1. Rats outside the captain's room.
2. The kitchen smells pungent.
3. Oiled windows in cargo hold.
4. Oiled floor of cargo hold.
5. In the cargo hold, first feed the chicks on the right (not big ones), then climb out of the window, and then come back. The wall will be dirty.
6. Climb out of the window and go left to the sea.
7. Empty medicine bottle on deck.
8. Dirt in front of the boiler overturned on the deck

So basically, What i did was record the first one.. Made A Save here.
Done the other 4, reloaded the original save with just one on there, then go and do the other 3 and achievement unlocks!
Just to make that a little clearer.

The report is given to you by LeChuck in the second half of Part II. It has 5 items to fill, but the achievement requires 8 unique entries. This means you can just save, fill five different ones, then load the game and fill it again using different occurrences of a mess.
Here is the list:
- Ghost rats outside LeChuck's cabin
- Galley (kitchen) - use report on any item there, it's all messy and counts as one entry
- Grease on the barrel of chicken feed in the hold (or it can be on Guybrush's kitbag, depending on where you transferred it during swabbing)
- Grease on the porthole
- Poop of one of the ghost chicken in the hold (first feed the middle chicken - Molly - then leave the room and come back)
- Empty crates all over the deck
- Leftovers of the potion spilled near the cauldron on the deck
- Gullet being stuck in the ship's rudder (underwater)

There are 8 types of disturbances in total, but only 5 can be recorded in the report. Before filling out the report, you need to save. Then record 5 disturbances, load the save and record the remaining three. Types of disturbances: a ghostly rat near LeChuck's cabin, traces of a spilled potion on the deck, boxes with used potions on the deck, a Gallet stuck in the steering wheel, unsanitary conditions in the kitchen, a dirty porthole in the hold, grease stains on the floor (you must first spread the grease with a mop on the floor in the beginning of the chapter), traces of the vital activity of ghostly chickens in the hold (you need to take food under the stairs and feed it to the chicken to the right of the porthole, and then exit and enter back into the hold)
