Creating a New Incident

Community Owners may need to enter an Incident if a product they received is damaged, defective, or deemed as unusable.  Once this is determined, a new Incident can be entered to send information directly to the supplier/distributor.  FoodLogiQ is the platform of discussion between the parties and where communication takes place.

Details on Entering a New Incident
