In EMSupply, incidents are a significant event or occurrence around which inventory and assets are managed. Associating inventory with an incident groups and labels that inventory to clearly identify it, which might be necessary for funding requirements, compliance, or reporting.
There are two types of incidents that can be created in EMSupply, actual incidents and Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) incidents. Both types of incidents log actions, including resource requests and shipments, and document the distribution of inventory. The main difference between these types of incidents is that SNS incidents have information about facilities, including receipt, stage, and store (RSS) and point of distribution (POD) sites, that allow you to clearly direct and monitor the movement of inventory between facilities.
You must have appropriate administrative rights to work with incidents for your domain, region, or location.
