# Cases table

Cases table lists key details of all genomic sequencing cases submitted by the organization.

You can [customize](#how-to-customize-cases-table-view) the table by hiding, showing, rearranging fields, or adjusting column widths, except for Case ID, which is fixed as the first column and always visible.

## Cases table fields

### Identification
