Moving a Sub-Case Type to a different Case Type

Report

Hello Guys,

I have a case type having ID= "X" that is linked to a sub-case type having ID="Y" and I want to move "Y" to a different case-type with ID= "Z"

Is it possible to do that?

Thanks,

Rosy

Hi Rosy,


If I understand your requirement correctly,I think it can be done. I couldn't see any issues on why it should not.

why can't you get the properties from ID="Y" and set the properties for ID="Z" which is of different case type and do an Obj-Delete of ID=Y or  if you need to maintain the old record ID=Y, just change the status of the ID="Y" to any resolved- statuses.

Let me know if you see any issues here or if you need more details.

I have not done it practically. But I can do a POC on PE and let you know the results.

Regards,

Sri

Hi Rosy,

If you want the case to be move from one parent case to other parent case you can use removefromcover  then followed with addtocover API activity. Additionally you need to update case designer so that case type Z can contain case type of Y.

We created pxMove API activity for the same purpose.

This activity takes the all the necessary parameters for the above use case.

I would suggest not using any internal activities like RemoveFromCover since they can be deprecated/change any time.

Let us know if you need any help related to pxMove API.
