Incident Code Maintenance

Module: Incident Management

Purpose: To create or modify dropdown list selections for the Incident Module.

To Access: Incident Management - Code Maintenance.

The selections on the dropdown lists in the Incident Management module (Incidents and Issues) are user created, except for the incident categories WHS, Breach, Complaint and Client Challenging Behaviour.

To create or modify the selections, the user must have Incident Management authority.

Click the link where you want to create or modify selections.  A list of selections (if any) will be displayed.

If you would like to use the Express Incident Registration form as the default new incident registration form instead of the full Incident Registration form for all users, tick the Use Express Incident Registration Form box.  If the box is not ticked, the system will default to the full Incident Registration screen.

Click the Add New Item button to create a new selection.

Click the Edit or Delete link for an item to modify or delete.  An item that has been used in any incident cannot be modified or deleted.

Note:  If an item has been used in an Incident or Issue, the item cannot be deleted, and the description cannot be changed. The Active status can be changed even if used, and setting Active to unchecked will remove the item from the Incident Cateogries list for new incidents.

To restrict modifications to certain fields or functions, use the Restricted Fields link.  Contact GuardianERM Support to obtain the proper field or function names.

Certain compulsory fields can be made not compulsory by un-ticking the field names using the Compulsory Fields configuration function.

Certain data fields can be disabled by ticking the field names using the Disabled Fields configuration function.  Disabled fields are not shown on the Incident Details screen.
