Define and edit incident data

Incident data help the XProtect Smart Client operators categorize incident projects in more detail. Incident data are optional. When you have enabled the incident property, XProtect Smart Client operators can assign them to all incident projects regardless of their assigned incident type, incident status, or other incident properties.

There are different types of incident data:

• Fields for entering a whole number, a decimal number, and free text

• Selection of check boxes and date and time

You can enable and define three of each incident data type.

To enable and define or edit incident data in Management Client:

1. Select Site Navigation > Incidents > Incident properties.

2. Select the Categories tab, then in the Incident data area, enable the incident data type that best fits what you want to achieve.

3. Give the incident data type a name and, optionally, a description.

4. Enable and define more incident data types if needed.

5. Ask the XProtect Smart Client operators to restart XProtect Smart Client.

The next time the operators log in to XProtect Smart Client, your changes to the incident properties are reflected.
