Creating cases can behave differently based on the type of user you are logged in as. Each user type’s available roles are explained in detail below. To be able to create cases, the user needs to have the "create case" user tickets assigned to them. This is controlled by your system administrator.
Creating the case
As a Case Manager:
A case manager can create a case for the type of which that user is the Case Manager
They are also able to choose whether to allocate the case to a Case Worker at the same time
As a Case Worker:
You can create a case
The case could then be allocated by a Case Manager or taken by a Case Worker
As a User (not a Case Manager or Case Worker)
You are able to create a case only
The case could then be allocated by a Case Manager or taken by a Case Worker
The following is an example of how you would create a Case.
We will be looking at an example of hiring an administration officer
1. From the main menu, navigate to Case Management > Case > Create
2. Select the case type from the Categorisation drop down.
3. Select the client from the Client popup find. Organisations and Client Administration Clients can also be clients
4. Note that the Client's Name becomes the title for the case
5. As you are logged in as the case manager, you are able to assign the case Later or Now. For this time leave the Process Definition & Allocation options as default. Note: only a case manager will see the options in process Definition & Allocation as a Case Worker will automatically have themselves allocated to a case
