Phases in an Investigation
You can customise the way you use phases in an investigation.
You might use phases to manage:
-
Areas of responsibility for different parts of the investigation.
For example managing evidence, witnesses, and scenes.
-
Allocating entities to parts of an investigation on a timeline.
For example initiating an investigation, gathering information, reviewing an investigation, preparing for a trial.
You can use these types of phases with cases:
-
Global phases – Your administrator can specify phases using system code tables that can be used for all cases.
-
Custom phases – A case officer can specify phases for a case.
Phases can be assigned to case notes and inherited by entities that are attached to the case note.
