Logbook

The logbook allows you to document and track ongoing cases or events and their updates. When a user creates a case, other users are then able post comments/updates to that event, as long as the case remains open. This provides users with a running record of events in real time, as well as the ability to coordinate and communicate faster when sharing information between multiple persons, groups and agencies.

Creating a Case
  1. Start by clicking the “Logbook” tab on ReadyOp dashboard.
    • The Logbook can be disabled as well as renamed. For more information on locating the tab, please contact your system administrator.
  2. Inside the Logbook tab, select the “New case” button in the upper-left corner.
  3. The new case dialog will appear. Enter the case information and press “Create” to save the new case.
    • Cases cannot be deleted, and by default they created in the “Open” status. However, Administrators have the ability to archive cases, which will hide them from view.
