Why create actions in investigations?

Creating actions in an investigation helps ensure that each incident is followed up with appropriate corrective steps. You can add an existing action or create a new one directly from the investigation to assign responsibility to your team and clarify what needs to be done. This promotes accountability and helps prevent similar incidents from happening again.
