Copying Event Details from Case to Case

Within the same ESM installation, you can copy event details from Case A (the source case) to Case B (the destination case), for situations where those two cases are similar but tracked separately. If Case A is deleted, the copied events in Case B are still available on Case B’s Events panel. You can only copy event details between two existing cases.

To copy events directly from the source case:

  1. Open the destination case for editing. Locking the destination case is not required.

  2. Display the source case’s Events tab, right-click the event(s), and select Add Event(s) to Case.

  3. On the Case Selector popup, select the destination case.

    Console adds the events and displays the destination case’s Events tab.

    Note: You can also copy events into a case from any event viewer, like an active channel, query viewer, case details channel, or data monitor. See Creating or Updating a Case from Displayed Events.
