5 Creating Cases

Cases are created for investigating business entities involved in potentially suspicious events.

If there is a need for investigation on an entity for which there are no open cases, then you can create a case manually and proceed with the investigation.

Note:

• Only users with relevant case-creation permissions can create a case.
• Cases are created by users by entering new case information manually.
• Cases are created based on case type and users cannot create CS cases manually.
• Case types are displayed based on the logged-in user.
