Understanding the Standard Sections

General
This section gathers the location, community and incident date information. You can customize the names of these attributes or add additional attributes below the default fields.

Incident Detail

This section is designed to capture details pertaining to the incident. The default fields in this section include the name of the incident reporter, their title, a description of the incident, and defining the issue type:

Product Info
This section is designed to capture all the details about the product being reported on. The standard information captured in this section include product type, supplier, product source, store reporting the incident, and quantity attributes.

Incident Photos
In this section, incident reporters can upload image files or other attachments (ie. PDF, spreadsheets, etc) as a part of their incident report. If the reporter is using the FoodLogiQ Connect mobile app the user can use their device's camera to take a photo of the product or case label to include in their report. You can modify the display name for this field, choose to make it required. You can also add an image field in other sections of the incident form if needed. The incident reporter can upload multiple files.

Credit Request
This section allows you to track requests for credit regarding the incident. By default, this section is configured with display attributes based on how the incident reporter answers the questions in the section. If they indicate they do want to request a credit, they will then be required to enter further details.

Working with New Incident Attributes
After clicking on the button, you need to define the parameters of the attribute you wish to track. You will need to name the attribute, create a key for it (auto created after name is entered) and define the type of attribute you want to capture.

The Type field has several options, including date, numbers, images, several text-based options and yes/no.

You also have the option to add help text to describe to the incident submitter what should be captured in this field. If you choose to enter help text you will see a checkmark appear on the incident type configuration page once applied. The incident submitter will then be able to view the help information when filling out the incident. See example below.

Finally, you have the options to make the attribute conditional as well as make it a required field. If you choose to make it conditional, you will then be required to define the “Display If” parameters for the attribute.
