Source Entities
Source entities include information reports, incident reports, case notes, tasks, and task results.
You can use source entities to record information about an investigation. This is how data is added to ICM.
Once you've added data to source entities, you can:
-
Update the data.
For example, to change an information report associated with a case, you'll need to open the information report and make the required changes.
Your agency can customise the data required for each type of source entity. This includes whether a template is used to enter information about a source entity.
Your agency can also specify the types of source entities that inherit the properties of basic source entities. See Maintaining Entity Types.
Depending on your permission settings, you can edit source entities. See Data Entry in the Admin section.
