Learn how to manage custom description fields in investigations via the web app.

What are investigation description fields?

Description fields in investigations allow you to structure how incident details are captured. You can customize these fields to guide your team on what to include during a workplace incident investigation, such as the incident description, timeline of events, people involved, and potential impact. This helps ensure consistent reporting and standardizes the investigation process across your team.
