New Incident Form

Previous  Top  Next

All incidents are generated from the New Incident Form. When adding an incident the user must complete the master incident form before entering data on a specific form. The data entered into the New Incident Form appears on all other incident forms in the Basic Information Section. Data entered into the New Incident Form can not be edited once the incident is added. There are two key questions on the New Incident Form: "Was a Vehicle Involved?" and "Was an Injury Involved?" Depending on how these two questions are certain questions will appear on the specific recording forms. For example if the user indicates that a vehicle was involved then on the Supervisor Form questions specific to a Vehicular Incident will appear. In addition on the New Incident Form, the user has the ability to determine if an Employee, Safety, Security and/or Hazardous Material Form should be generated for the incident. Once enters the basic information and identifies which forms should be generated the incident is assigned an incident number and the appropriate forms are created.
