If you click for any case series, you can do the following:

To view a case series, click View Cases.
To view the query for a query-based case series, click View Query. This option shows the variables and values that make up the query, as well as the edit logic.
To view existing report definitions for the case series, click Report.
To add the query portion of the case series to the Query Library, click Add Query to Library. You must have access to the data configuration on which the case series is based. If the query is in the Query Library (the Queries page), it is separate from the case series. Subsequent modification or deletion of the query in the library has no effect on the case series.
To copy a case series, click Copy. You must have access to the configuration on which the case series is based. You can copy any case series that you created or that has been published to your login group. If you have the Administer Users permission, you can copy a case series published to any login group.
To cancel a running or In Queue case series background processing job, click Cancel. The Cancel option is available only when a background processing job exists for the case series.

If you click for a case series that you created, you can do the following:

To edit the query portion of a case series that was created with the Query Wizard, click Edit Query. You can click Back to select a different data configuration.
If the Cases Added column shows Yes, then cases have been transferred or added manually to the case series. If you re-execute the case series, those cases are no longer be part of the case series.

Note: Your edits to the query portion of the case series have no effect on the query in the Query Library (the Queries page). Likewise, editing or deleting the query in the library has no effect on the case series.

To rename a case series, click Rename. You can also change its description or assign it to a different project.
To publish a case series, click Publish. If you have the Administer Users permission, you can publish a case series created by any user in your login group.
To delete a case series, click Delete. When a message asks if you want to delete the case series, click OK. The case series is deleted and no longer appears on your Case Series tab.

Note: Before deleting a query-based case series, you can save the query portion of the case series with the Add Query to Library option.
