You can record an event while creating an incident or add one to an existing incident at any time. Each event belongs to one student and one incident.
You need the Contributor role or above to record events.

Recording an event on an existing incident

You can also record an event from a student’s profile. On the Events card, click the + button, pick the incident to attach it to, then fill in the same form.

Adding events while creating an incident

When you record a new incident you can add events at the same time. After the AI analyses your description, an Events section appears in the review step — click Add Event to add one. If the AI suggests events based on your description, they are pre-filled for you to review — you can keep, edit, or remove them before saving.

Incidents with more than one main student

An event always applies to a single student. When an incident has more than one main student, you choose which student each event applies to in the Add Event dialog before saving.
To keep things accurate, events are not suggested automatically when an incident has multiple main students — add them manually and pick the student each one relates to.

Editing an event

Find the event and choose Edit to open the Edit Event dialog. You can change the dates and notes. The event type is fixed once the event is created. Click Update Event to save.
You can edit or delete an event you created. Users with the DSL, Deputy DSL, or Owner role can edit or delete any event.

Deleting an event

Choose Delete on the event and confirm. The event is removed from the timeline. Deleting an event does not affect the incident or any comments.

Seeing events from other incidents

When you view an incident, events recorded on the same student’s other incidents also appear on the timeline, clearly marked with the incident they came from. This gives you the wider history without having to open every incident individually. Events from other incidents are read-only here — open the originating incident to change them.
