***

**🗂️ Report Categories**

Used to classify incident reports inside the MDT.

```lua
Config.ReportsCategories = {
    ['police'] = {
        { label = "Traffic", type = "traffic" },
        { label = "Assault", type = "assault" },
        { label = "Robbery", type = "robbery" },
        { label = "Murder", type = "murder" },
    },
    ['ems'] = {
        { label = "Traffic", type = "traffic" },
        { label = "Assault", type = "assault" },
        { label = "Robbery", type = "robbery" },
        { label = "Murder", type = "murder" },
    }
}
```

Each entry includes:

* `label`: What appears in the MDT UI.
* `type`: Used internally to categorize the report.

***

**📋 FTO Evaluation Categories**

Used in FTO (Field Training Officer) reports for performance evaluations.

```lua
Config.FTOReportsCategories = {
    ['police'] = {
        { name = "Appearance", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Knowledge", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Communication", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Officer Safety", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Control of Conflict", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Decision Making", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Report Writing", rating = 3, comments = "" },
    },
    ['ems'] = {
        { name = "Appearance", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Knowledge", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Communication", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Officer Safety", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Control of Conflict", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Decision Making", rating = 3, comments = "" },
        { name = "Report Writing", rating = 3, comments = "" },
    }
}
```

Each category can be rated and commented on during training assessments.
