31 Report an Incident Mobile Applications

This chapter discusses these topics:


Important Note:

Before using the mobile applications, Oracle strongly recommends that users have a complete understanding of how to use the associated processes and applications in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne base software.

For additional information about the processes and applications associated with the mobile applications discussed in this chapter, see:


31.1 Report an Incident Mobile Applications Overview

You use the Report an Incident mobile applications to review incidents, and to enter new incidents. You can:

  • Enter incident details, such as the description of an incident, the location where the incident occurred, the date and time of the incident, and the date and time when you report the incident. If you turned on the location setting on your mobile device, you can enable the applications to populate the location coordinates where the incident occurred.

  • Attach details of the people who are involved in the incident to the incident record.

  • Add photos associated with the incident and view existing photos.

This table lists the applications that are available to review and enter health and safety incidents:

Type of Application Additional Information
Base EnterpriseOne application To review existing incidents and to enter new incidents, use these applications in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system:
  • Incident Master program (P54HS00)

  • Report an Incident program (P54HS30)

Tablet application Add Incident (M54HS32)

To download the application to your device, search on the following text in the application store:

  • JD Edwards Report an Incident

Smartphone application Add Incident (M54HS31)

To download the application to your device, search on the following text in the application store:

  • JD Edwards Report an Incident


Before using the Report an Incident mobile applications, you must set the processing options for the Report an Incident mobile applications.

31.1.1 Differences and Limitations: Report an Incident

Mobile applications are intended to be a simplified version of the applications that are available in the base software. In most cases, these applications provide a subset of the functionality available in the base software.

The Report an Incident mobile smartphone application uses your login ID to search for incidents that you are associated with. After you launch the smartphone application, the system displays a list of your incidents that occurred seven days prior to the system date. To search for and filter incidents from your list, you can use the date filter in the application.

The Report an Incident mobile tablet application processes all incidents available in the EnterpriseOne system. After you launch the tablet application, the system displays a list of all incidents that occurred seven days prior to the system date. In the tablet application, other filters apart from the date filter are also available.

In the base EnterpriseOne Incident Master program (P54HS00), you can access all incidents. You have access to several Query By Example (QBE) fields that you can use to search and filter incidents. Therefore, your search results in the mobile applications can differ from the search results in the base application.

Language Support

Additionally, you should be aware of how a user's language preference can affect the search functionality for business unit and branch/plant records. See Section 1.2.2.1, "Language Support for Business Unit and Branch Plant Searches"

31.2 Setting Up the Report an Incident Mobile Applications

Processing Options

Before you use the Report an Incident tablet and smartphone applications, you must set up the processing options of the applications in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne system. You must also review the processing options for the Incident Master program (P54HS00) and the Report an Incident program (P54HS30) to verify that the processing options are valid when you process incident data by using the mobile device.

Location Services

You can use the device's location services to automatically display the latitude and longitude values of the location for an incident. To use the device's location services for the Report an Incident mobile applications, you must verify that the location setting in the mobile device (tablet or smartphone) is turned on.

When the location setting is turned on in the smartphone, the Report an Incident smartphone application displays a window asking if you want to enable location services. You get this window when you add a new incident using the smartphone application. After you confirm to enable location services for the application, the application displays the latitude and longitude values of the location.

When the location setting is turned on in the tablet, the Report and Incident tablet application automatically displays the latitude and longitude values of the location. The tablet application does not ask the user for a confirmation whether to enable location services.

You can turn off the location services for the applications (smartphone and tablet) if you do not want the system to populate the location coordinates of the incident location. To turn off location services for an application, you must go to the mobile device location setting, and manually turn off the location services for the application.
