Ad hoc work

Ad hoc work is a manually generated case instance that is processed as a subcase, but is not an instance of a case type defined in the case type structure and does not appear in the Case Designer landing page tab. Users add ad hoc work to efficiently handle exceptions that may arise in the course of expected business processing without having to wait for developers to modify the application. To create ad hoc work, the user can:

• Add it to a parent case in the My Cases tab on the Case Manager portal.
• Select it as a local action in the parent user form's Other Actions... menu.

These work items use the standard flows .pyManualTaskStandardAssignment or .pyManualTaskStandardApproval. Ad hoc work can parent other ad hoc work instances. With the privilege .pyCaseInstitutionalize, the user can convert ad hoc work into a case type.
