A Module Summary
- Peter Kakris
Registers contain data (Items) and define the structure and the workflow rules, as well as some Positions and Resources. Crisisworks users go on duty to their positions, which grants them access to create, view, edit or manage items in the registers (e.g. adding requests, information, cases, documents).
Each register has common elements such as: Maps, Asset selection, Rich Text areas for details, Status, Due dates and time, Notes, Audit log, Tags etc
These are the main registers/modules which are included with most Crisisworks installations:
| Register/Module | Purpose | Documentation link |
|---|---|---|
| Requests | Assign tasks/jobs to positions. Notifications issued via SMS & email for assigned and overdue items | Requests |
| Information | Information records store and publish intelligence intended to be shared with others, they are not directly actionable. The Information module provides a way to store and publish a variety of information including messages, reports and assessments. Information can be stored in Crisisworks, promoted onto the dashboard, and explicitly published by email and SMS to users. | Information |
| Logs | Position or personal notes that can be seen by some others but not intended to be publicly shared, to be used for later reference or evidence. Can be your thoughts, or decisions made & the reason for your actions. If you want to make a note against an existing request/ Information/ case etc, do not use these log, edit the record and add a comment to it | Logs |
| Offers | Manage records of a people or organisation offering material or in-kind assistance, such as accommodation for people or animals, labour, food, blankets etc | Offers |
| Library | The Library is where documents and wikis are securely stored for access all year round and during emergencies Store procedures, policies, job descriptions, minutes of meetings, plans, references guides, and anything else that you need to share with your users. This also includes geospatial items you want to work with from other records or use view on a map layer. | Reference Library |
| Contacts | A contact is a record for a person or an organisation that you would like to store for the current event/emergency or to retain for all current and future events. A contact record can also be linked to a Request, Information or Offer record, which makes data entry faster and more accurate if you keep your contacts up to date. Contacts are also accessible in the Crisisworks app, making the contacts register a great place to keep all of your key staff for access anywhere at any time. | Contacts |
| Recovery (People & Property) | The recovery module contains a series of registers to capture impact details of people, property, agriculture, livestock, environmental health assessment and private infrastructure, and to then manage the recovery via tasks and financial tracking.

| Recovery (Infrastructure Assessment) | Infrastructure Assessments track and manage infrastructure such as roads, culverts, signs and facilities that have been affected by disasters. Supports Contractors that can use the mobile app or web system to manage their own tasks | Recovery (Infrastructure Assessment) |
| Rostering & Availability | The Rostering feature helps manage staff and volunteers for different positions at different times. The Crisisworks web-based rostering module uses modern drag and drop features to make its use intuitive and fast and can be used by multiple people at the same time in different locations. | Rostering & Availability |
