# The Case Tab

The Case Tab displays a single case's details and provides tools for processing it.

## Case Tab Components

### Case Header

The case header displays the case status, entry mode, current inbox, service category, service type, linked customer, and action panel. 

The action panel allows you to assign a user and perform other actions, such as resolving or moving the case to another inbox.

The case status determines the available actions.

### Case Record

The Case Record section allows you to tag the case and edit the case's fields. The case's service category determines the available tags and fields.

You can edit the case record only after you start processing it (the case status is **Active** and is locked by you).

### Notes

The notes section is a useful tool for adding additional information to a case. One example of when you might use it is when you are moving the case to another inbox.&#x20;

Regardless of the case status, agents can add multiple notes to a case, allowing for documented discussions about the case.
