# Case status

Case status indicates the current stage of case processing by the Emedgene platform or a genomic analyst.

## Where can I find the current status of the case?

1. Status column of the [Cases table](cases_table);

2. [Case details panel](case_details);

![](https://1131024994-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FGCW0DnLlE7QjoZPNmKIi%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-a9967fd6452bfb0c30ecce00d7c2cc44a03aed04%2Fcase_status_2_image.png?alt=media)

3. [Individual case page Top bar](https://github.com/illumina-swi/emedgene-docs/blob/prod/docs/emedgene_analyze_manual/reviewing_a_case/individual_case_page:_top_bar.md).

## Built-in statuses include:

### 1. Uploading

The sequencing file is being uploaded on the platform.

**Note:** The Uploading status cannot be manually altered.

### 2. In Progress

Case is running.

**Note:** The In Progress status cannot be manually altered.

### 3. Delivered

The running stage completed, and the case is now available for users for analysis and review.

### 4. Finalized

Analysis and review completed.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** access to applying or [changing](case_status) Finalized status could be restricted to specific users, such as organization managers and directors, who possess corresponding [user roles](../getting_around_the_platform/user_roles).
{% endhint %}

Status Finalized by design should be assigned manually after summarizing the analysis findings through the Case Interpretation widget. Specifically, when finalizing a case, you should indicate its end result:

* Confidently Solved (Positive),
* Likely Solved (Positive),
* Further Investigation (Uncertain), or
* Unsolved (Negative).

Confidently Solved, Likely Solved and Further Investigation end result categories correspond to the Resolved case status supercategory, and Unsolved obviously falls into Not resolved (together with all the non-finalized cases). The indicated case analysis outcomes are used to calculate the diagnostic yield.

### 5. Archived

Indicates that the case is not subject to further review. Changing Case status to Archived requires technical support (pre-34.0 flow).

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The Archived status cannot be manually altered.
{% endhint %}

### 6. Move to trash 🆕 34.0+

Makes the case unaccessible. This status is only assigned manually.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Once moved to trash, the Case status cannot be altered without technical support.
{% endhint %}

### 7. Pending Sequencing

The case has been created, but is not connected to any genetic data.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The Pending Sequencing status cannot be manually altered.
{% endhint %}

### 8. Issue Reported

The case failed to run. Please check the integrity of the files used and verify that the variant caller is on our accepted variant caller list.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The Issue Reported status cannot be manually altered.
{% endhint %}

### 9. Reanalysis

The system is re-running the AI Shortlist algorithm for the case.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The Reanalysis status cannot be manually altered.
{% endhint %}

## How to change the Case status

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** You can change statuses Delivered and (provided you have the necessary [roles](../getting_around_the_platform/user_roles)) Finalized, as well as custom statuses. However, the default case statuses Uploading, In Progress, Archived, Move to trash, Pending Sequencing, Issue Reported and Reanalysis cannot be manually altered.

#### B. In the [Cases table](cases_table):

1. In the Cases table, click on the current case status.
2. Select the relevant status from the dropdown menu.

## Where can I manage Case statuses?

From Settings>Management>Test Statuses>[Case Statuses](../settings/management), you can create custom Case statuses, remove unused Case statuses, and rearrange their order.
