Incident types are the primary way to categorize and distinguish between incidents. The XProtect Smart Client operators can assign one incident type to each incident project when they create or update incident projects.

To define or edit an incident type in Management Client:

  1. Select Site Navigation > Incident properties .

  2. On the Types tab, select:

    • Add to define a new incident type

    • Edit to update an existing incident type

    • Delete to remove an existing incident type

    Note

    You can't edit or delete incident types assigned to one or more incident projects in XProtect Smart Client. Before you edit or delete incident types, press F5 to refresh to include the latest changes to incident projects.

For an example of how to use incident types, see Scenario: Use incident types to document who gets injured.
