# Case Browser

The Case Browser tool enables users to search and view cases in the organization.

{% hint style="info" %}
Using the Case Browser tool requires the **Agent,** **Power Agent,** or **Case Manager** roles.

Case Managers can access all cases organization-wide, while agents and power agents are limited to cases in units for which they have permission.
{% endhint %}

## Searching Cases

The case browser tool consists of 3 panes:

* **Search Criteria**: Contains filters used to filter the cases
* **Search Results**: Lists cases matching the search criteria.
* **Case Details**: Shows the details of the selected case from the search results.

### Search Criteria

* **Date Range:** The case browser lists cases with **reference dates** in the specified date range. For walk-in cases, the reference date is the date the case was created. For appointments, it is the appointment date.
* **Unit:** Select one or more units. The search is based on the unit of the **current inbox** where the case is located.\
  Note that **Agents** and **Power Agents** can only choose units where they were granted explicit access permission. **Case Managers** can search cases in any unit.
* **Service Category:** Filters the results based on the case's service category. Select one or more service categories. Clear the filter to include cases in any category.
* **Status**: Filters the results based on the current case status. Choose one or more statuses. Clear the filter to include cases in any status.
* **Tags:** Filter the results to include cases with one or more selected tags.&#x20;
* **Entry Mode:** Filter the results to show Walk-ins/ Appointments.
* **Customer**: Filter the results to include cases linked to a selected customer.

## Viewing Case Data

When you change any search criteria, the Search Results pane updates automatically to list matching case records.
