In this article, we will discuss how to add, edit, and remove phases, which requires Org Admin access and the Taskflow feature or the Customs Editor to be unlocked by the support team.

Overview
Phases describe key moments in a case's lifespan. In Filevine, they are a way to have important tasks automatically created based on what stage the case is in and what type of case it is. For example, a "Potential Client" phase may include the automatically-created task (a.k.a. an AutoTask) to run a conflict check to ensure the client is eligible for representation. A "Settled/Disbursal" phase might include an autotask to prepare a disbursal sheet and another task to set up an appointment with the client to review and sign it.
The phase of a case is shown in the top right corner of the case. To change the phase, simply click on the current phase and select the new phase. At anytime, a case can re-enter a previous phase and the autotasks for that phase will be recreated.
Navigating to the Taskflow
To navigate to the taskflow to edit phases, go to the Menu > Advanced > "Taskflow" in the left sidebar.
