Investigations are most commonly initiated directly from an incident record using the "Launch Formal Investigation" button. This is the recommended method for initiating investigations related to EHS incidents, as it ensures continuity and traceability between the incident and the subsequent investigation.
Alternatively, users may choose to create a standalone investigation directly from the Investigation Center in the Serenity Workspace. This option can be used to investigate any event or issue, even if it is not directly tied to a reported EHS incident. Users can navigate to the Investigation Center and select "New Investigation" to begin.
