DOB stands for Daily Occurrence Book
A Daily Occurrence Book (DOB) is a structured log used by security, facilities, and operational teams to record key events, incidents, and routine activity during a shift. It provides a clear timeline of what happened, when, and who was involved, supporting handovers, audits, and incident investigations.
Typical entries include incidents (alarms, trespassing, lost property), key events (contractor access, deliveries, drills), and routine activity (patrol checks, lock/unlock procedures, CCTV checks).
Log entries promptly and accurately. Use objective language. Keep formats consistent across shifts. Attach supporting evidence where relevant. Review logs regularly to identify patterns and follow up on open items.
Digital DOBs give teams real-time access, faster entry, and instant search across all records. There's no risk of lost books, illegible handwriting, or gaps in the audit trail. Compliance is built in, not bolted on.
The DOB provides the chronological foundation for any incident review. Reviewers use it to reconstruct the sequence of events, assess decisions made, evaluate response times, and identify gaps in communication or resource deployment.
Because Zinc's DOB links directly to your Incident Management module, review teams can move between the live incident record and the underlying DOB entries without switching platforms.
Zinc brings together data from your DOB, Incident Management, and Patrol Management in a single analytics view. Managers can see DOB entries alongside related incidents and patrol records without switching between modules, giving them the full context for any review or investigation.
Yes. Zinc's DOB is built for multi-site operations. Filter logs by site, team, or location. Supervisors get a single view, regardless of how many sites they manage.
Access is role-based. Operatives log entries. Supervisors review and escalate. Managers access reports and exports. Administrators control permissions. Every action is tracked against a named user.
Zinc's DOB helps venues and operators meet their documentation and record-keeping obligations. Detailed audit trails, timestamped entries, and export-ready reports support compliance reviews and inspections.

Yes. Zinc works across desktop, tablet, and mobile. Operatives can log entries on-site in real time, without returning to a desk or waiting until the end of a shift.
