Publishing a Report

An incident owner or incident editor can publish a report. You cannot publish a report that contains content not yet published in a decision, but you can create and download a draft .PDF for viewing or sharing. All report types can be customized and allow users to add relevent decision content to meet the user's needs. Examples of report contents are:

• Management Action Points for Operations and inbriefs
• Incident Objectives and Requirements for inbriefings
• Fire Behavior Summary
• Risk Assessment Summary

The above items can be combined to create a large, customized inbriefing report.

Note: The report must have a Status of Available before you can publish. If the status for the selected report is Being Edited, check in the report content before attempting to publish.

1. From the Incident list, select the incident > click View Information. The Edit Information page appears.
2. Choose the Reports tab. The Reports list appears.
3. From the Report List, select the report that you want to edit.
4. Click Publish. A message appears asking if you are sure that you want to lock all content.

7. Click Save. The Save As dialog box appears.
