# Manage data quality incidents

When a monitor detects a variation that's out-of-bounds, it logs an incident. Each incident is specific to one monitor, and has a start time, a severity, a direction, a duration, and a status.&#x20;

You have several options for reviewing incidents:

* On the Dashboard's **Data Quality** tab, incidents are implied by a summary score below 100%: each monitor that logs at least one incident is excluded from the score (e.g., if the score is 10/11 (91%), one monitor logged one or more incidents. \
  \
  **TO REVIEW:** Select the summary score and then look at the heatmap: it shows two weeks' history of each monitor included in the summary score. Each day when an incident occurred appears as a red box on the heatmap. You can review any incident by opening the related metric chart.
* In the Explorer tree, when you select a data asset that has recent incidents, an **Incidents** menu appears on every metric chart where a monitor logged an incident.   &#x20;

1. In the left pane, select a workspace. Then on the top bar, select **Incidents**.
2. The main page lists all the incidents logged in the selected workspace.
3. Select the **Incident** ID to review its details and compare it to other incidents.
4. After you finish reviewing the incident, if applicable, change the value of **STATUS** to reflect your actions.
