# Scan, say what happened, done.

> Quick report is a three-field incident report that opens when someone scans a facility QR code. It works on any phone. With no signal, it queues the report and sends it later, so near misses get captured, not forgotten.

**QR and quick report** (report): Scan a QR code, fill in three fields, and the incident is on record.

## What it does

- **Three fields** What happened, how serious, where. Enough to start the record and route it. Details come later.
- **A QR code per site** Print it and post it at the nurses' station, the dock door or the break room. A scan opens quick report for that site.
- **Works without signal** No connection? The report waits on the phone and sends when the signal is back.
- **Becomes a full record** A quick report opens an incident that Lauren and a reviewer can complete.

## How it works

1. **Scan the code** Any phone camera. No app to install.
2. **Say what happened** Three fields. Ten seconds for a near miss.
3. **It routes itself** The right owner is told, and the record opens for follow-up.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do staff need an account?

Quick report is built to avoid login friction. After that, roles decide who can see and edit the record.

### What if there is no signal in the basement or on site?

The phone queues the report and sends it when the connection returns. The queue has a limit, so report from a spot with signal when you can.

### Can quick report be used for near misses?

Yes. Near misses are the point: quick reports are how they get captured. See [near-miss reporting](https://incidentkit.ai/use-cases/near-miss-reporting).
