Step 6: Assign the Worker


Return to ‘Work with Incident Participants’ screen.
If the Log Number is not showing, key the Log Number.
If you do not know the Log Number, use the lookup function.

Create a new case
Press the ‘F9=Case’ key.
The ‘Assign Worker’ window will appear.
Type the ID of the worker who will investigate the incident.
Use the lookup function if necessary.
Press Enter.
After a moment, the ‘Work with Cases’ screen will appear.
Press F3=Exit to return to the selection screen.

Assign the incident to an existing case
With the Log Number showing in the field, press the ‘F16=CmplInvst’ key.
The ‘Work with Incident Completion’ screen will appear.
Type the ‘ONECase Number’ into the field on the bottom half of the screen.
Press Enter twice.

Create a new case
Once you decide that the circumstances of the incident warrant a formal investigation, you need to assign the incident to a worker. You do this in ONECase by using the F9=Case function on the selection screen. This function will automatically create a new case, including in it all the participants you defined earlier. Because the program creates a new case, you should search existing case to avoid creating another case.

Finding a case, you go to the ‘Work with Incident Completion’ screen by pressing F16 on the selection screen. Then key the digit part of the case number into the ‘ONECase Number’ field. Press Enter to save the data.
