Data Transfer from the Injury/Illness Log

Use

Not every accident is entered immediately in the Incident/Accident log . For example, if the injured person goes to the company first aid room for first aid treatment, some legislation stipulates that an entry must be made in the injury/illness log. To do this, you can use the injury/illness log (EHS-HEA-IIL) in the Occupational Health (EHS-HEA) component.

If you also enter the accident at a later date in the Incident/Accident Log in the Incident/Accident Management (EHS-IHS-IA) component, you do not need to enter all the data again; you can transfer it from the injury/illness log entry using the data transfer function.

Integration

To be able to use data transfer, you need the Injury/Illness Log (EHS-HEA-IIL) component. The data in injury/illness log entries must be proposed for transfer. The injury/illness log entry type controls the transfer proposals.

Features

Data Transfer

You can transfer data from one or more injury/illness log entries to an incident/accident log entry. To do this you select from a proposal list the injury/illness log entries from which you want to transfer data.

You can also reject entries in the proposal list. The relevant entries are then removed from the proposal list.

When you start the transfer, the data is copied from the Injury/Illness Log either to an entry you selected or to a new entry in the incident/accident log. If several illness/injury log entries contain similar data (for example, time of event), the system transfers the data from the first entry selected in the proposal list.

Note Note

When the data is transferred to an existing entry in the incident/accident log, data already stored in that entry is not overwritten.

End of the note.

In the standard system you can transfer the following data from the Injury/Illness Log :

  • Time of event (date, time)

  • Indicator: Fatality

  • Event location (plant, work area, accident location, description of accident location)

  • Persons Involved

    Note Note

    If you want to transfer more data from the injury/illness log, you can define an enhancement for the function when you set up the system. You can use the user exit IAL_TRANSP for this purpose. For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Basic Data and Tools under Manage User Exits .

    End of the note.
Direct Call of Injury/Illness Log Entries from the Incident/Accident Log Entry

Once you have run the transfer, you can navigate to the list of injury/illness log entries from which you transferred the data to the respective incident/accident log entry by choosing Injury/Illness Log and call the various entries.

In the same way you can also call the incident/accident log entry that received the data from within the injury/illness log.

Reset Status of Data Transfer in Injury/Illness Log

As long as the injury/illness log entry is still open, you can reset the status of the data transfer in the injury/illness log from Not transferred or Transferred to Not specified again. This means the relevant injury/illness log entry is placed in the proposal list again.

This function is not active in the standard system. If you want to use it, you must make the necessary settings for the environment parameter IHS_FAL_PRSTDT_FLG in Customizing for Basic Data and Tools under Specify Environment Parameters .

Activities

You access data transfer by choosing Start of the navigation path Accidents Next navigation step Data Transfer End of the navigation path from Injury/Illness Log in the Industrial Hygiene and Safety menu .This takes you to the proposal list with the entries that are proposed for transfer in the Injury/Illness log ..
