How to Re-Open a Matter

When you've finished with a matter, Lawcus allows you to mark the matter as closed. However, if you've closed the matter by mistake, you can always re-open it.

To re-open a matter:

1. Click on Matters in the left sidebar. Lawcus opens the Matters screen.
2. Click on the More Actions drop-down list at the top of the screen.
3. Click on Closed matters from the More Actions menu that appears. Lawcus displays the list of closed matters.
   
   
   
   
4. Click on Re-open next to the matter you want to re-open. Lawcus will re-open the matter. The matter will now be listed in the Matters screen.

Alternate Method

1. Use the Search bar at the top of the screen to search for the matter.
2. Click on the matter name in the search results. Lawcus will show you the details of the matter.
   
   
   
   
3. Click on Re-open matter in the Quick Actions panel. Lawcus will re-open the matter entry.
   
   
   
   Notice there is no message at the top-left corner and the Quick Actions panel now says "Close matter" instead of "Re-open matter".
   
   
4. Click on the Close button at the top-right corner to return to the Matters screen.
