Description
Agency
If the involved person does not belong to an agency (e.g. witness, victim, defendant), this field is left blank. Only agencies listed in the Agencies snap-in will be included in this list.
Involvement
If an agency has been selected, only involvement types that correspond with the agency will be included in this list.
Name
The options in this list will be determined by the selections made in the Agency and Involvement fields.
Changing the name of the Case Involved Person will cascade that change throughout the case. Meaning, the new name will be changed on all events, tasks, financial obligations, etc. If a payment has been taken for the Case Involved Person, JustWare will restrict you from changing the name.
