Grabbing Cases: Go to Lists > Support > Cases > List.

  • When you want to assign a case yourself, you can grab a case from the list of cases. Grab link is available only for the cases which are not assigned.
  • Click Grab next to the case you want to assign yourself. The case is automatically assigned to you.
