Setting case states using Intermediate Events

Intermediate Events allow you to set a case state while executing the Business Process. The property Case Management > Case State configures all case states that are available throughout the Business Process. To set a case state, perform the following steps:

1. Drag an Intermediate event from the Palette to the workplace.

2. Select the event element, and switch to the Properties view.

3. Select in property Case Management > Case State a predefined case state, e.g. IN PROGRESS.

   

   If property Case State doesn't provide an option yet, no case state has been defined for the Business Process. To manage case states, click property Case State and open the case state management by clicking the

   

   button, see Managing Case States.

   When executing the Business Process, the case state will now be updated. The case state change is indicated by a corresponding label for the event.

As an alternative, the case state can also be set dynamically using Technical Processes. The Case Management adapter is provided for this purpose.
