Enhancing case searches

Updated on February 16, 2021

Onboarding activities can result in the creation of large volumes of work which are commonly carried out by multiple groups within the organization.

You can use the Relationship Manager Portal to perform searches on cases in your environment. You can add fields to the search results to help refine your search.

For information about how case searches are implemented, see Case searches in Client Lifecycle Management for Financial Services.

To extend the functionality, complete the following steps.

  1. In the Dev Studio header search text field, enter pyWorkSearch and select the Work- report definition rule.

  2. Save the rule into your implementation layer. For additional information about locked and unlocked rulesets, see Copying a rule or data instance.

  3. Click Add column, and type the name of a custom property that you want to add, for example, pyCustomerName.
