SET CASE STATUS is part of the Excel Client functionality.

SET CASE STATUS modifies the 'status' field of a 'case' in the cases database table.

A case in an Excel Client EASAP has the lifecycle below:

• DATABASE TO EXCEL DESKTOP > Action: New
  …Creates an empty case with: status > NEW
• 'EASA Ribbon > Save' from within an Excel Client writes the case to a database and sets: status > IN_PROGRESS
• 'status > FINISHED' shows completion of some external validation step from any MySQL enabled client
• 'status > DELETED' removes a case from active use in a non-destructive way
  …Actual destruction of a case record is not supported because of the possibility of a later audit
