You can add, edit and delete the steps of a Case type from the Service Lines page. You can easily reorder the steps by dragging and dropping them. The Milestone % is optional, it denotes the progress reached when this step is completed and it displays in the Case form status tracker control.
When you delete a step, any Actions that were underneath that step will now display as ad hoc Actions. When a step is reordered, the Actions underneath that step will move with the step.
If you make changes to the steps of a Case type, live versions of Case processes of that Case type will not be affected. They will run as previously configured and the step changes won't apply until a new version of the Case process with the updated steps has been set live.
You will be notified in the Case process screen if its steps are out of date i.e. if changes have been made at a Case type-level when you are in edit mode.
You can click on the Refresh Steps icon in the header of the Case screen to refresh the steps to the latest version.
When you click to confirm, you will be shown which changes have been made:
Click OK to update the steps to match the steps configured at a Case-type level; new steps will be added to the Case process, steps in the Case process will be renamed, steps in the Case process will be moved along with the Actions underneath them and steps will be deleted and their Actions will become ad hoc Actions.
You can clone any Case process which is live under the same service line and all data such as Actions etc. will be cloned, except for schedules.
If the Case you are cloning has the same Case type, then the step names and Actions will all be copied across.
If the Case you are cloning has a different Case type, then the step names will not be copied across, instead they will appear like this:
Actions will be cloned across in their original positions i.e. Actions under the first step of the process being cloned will be the Actions under the first step of the Case process they have been cloned to. If there are more steps in the source process being cloned than in the Case it is being cloned to, the Actions under the "extra" step will become ad hoc Actions.
To update the steps in the Case to the latest version of its own Case type, click to refresh the steps in edit mode.
This will update the steps to the latest version in the Case type. If a step has been removed, any Actions that were underneath that step will now display as ad hoc Actions.
