Periodic case review is easier when review dates and resulting actions are tracked instead of left in calendar reminders or narrative notes. An investigation review tracker creates a history of when the case was reviewed and what needed attention afterward.
What to record
Useful fields include case ID, review date, reviewer or owner, current status, open leads, overdue actions, unresolved issues, decisions or observations, next actions and next review date.
Review the open work
Use the review to surface leads without next steps, pending requests, overdue actions and unresolved source conflicts.
Preserve review history
Keeping prior review dates and outcomes makes it possible to see how the case progressed rather than overwriting the previous status.
Create actions from the review
If review identifies new work, move those tasks into the action or lead tracker with ownership and status.
For a structured review workflow, see the CaseWorks Investigation & Case Management System.
