A log is a record of a person’s observations, intentions, actions and decisions, typically a position log in an emergency context. Logs are accessible by other users with the same position, as well as coordinators.
There are a number of ways to publish information in Crisisworks. Logs are typically shared only with others in your position. If you wish to share information with others, consider using an Information record instead. If you wish to add notes to an existing record such as a case note on a recovery record, then browse to that record, click edit, then add a record note instead. |
The Logs register is located under Operations > Logs in the menu.
The Activity Log sidebar shows a running log of all activity within Crisisworks, including log items. It also provides a quick way to post new log entries from any screen.

The log register can be used just like any other register. Unlike the faster method, this allows different schema to be selected based on the type of log being entered.
