Displaying Preferred Case Details in Patient CRM
To streamline workflows and boost productivity, organizations can choose to display additional Preferred Case Detail fields to Patient Center users. This additional information gives users faster access to important case information without leaving the Case Details pane. Up to six customer-defined Preferred Case Details fields can be added to Case Details views.
Preferred Case Details fields configured for the Case Details pane are independent from the Case record’s Case Details sub-tab.

- is_escalated__v (if the case has ever been escalated)
- case_category__v
- product__v
- case_owner__v
- case_queue__v
- Duplicate or invalid field names are ignored

- Case Severity - case__v.severity__v
- Case Type - case__v.case_type__v
- Contact Type - case__v.contact_type__v
