    →  Setup

   New Case Type button (2).
   

   

4. Enter Auto Loan as the Case Type Name. The Code field will be auto-populated using the Name field subtracting dash (-) and any spaces or special characters, it also changes to uppercase.

   

   You can override Code Value (ensuring no spaces or special characters are used). Code Value cannot be changed after saving

5. Type ‘car’ in the Icon field and select the automobile car icon as a pictorial representation of our Case Type.

   This is particularly useful for Case Workers when several Case Type options are available when first creating a Case, so your description helps explain when to use this type.
