Managing casework
The following features are available in the Manage cases tab of the system allowing you to search, view and manage cases. When using the manage cases tab you are working in the context of the caseworker and not the customer so any changes made to the case will not be reflected in the customers contact history. If a customer calls you for example and you want to record that as a case note then you should go to the Manage contacts tab and search for the contact then record actions from there.
