# Issues

In Enginsight, custom alerts can trigger and display issues and incidents.

*Issues* are persistent or recurring conditions that remain active over a certain period of time. They are closed automatically as soon as the condition no longer applies and the problem has been resolved.

*Incidents* are one-time events that indicate a specific condition and can be reviewed immediately. They remain open until they are manually marked as reviewed.
