There is a requirement that, whether the user could be taken to the case immediately after the Add Case action so that they could continue to add more content without having to go back to the case list and search for it. To implement this, please visit this tech note: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/opening-case-after-creation

Similarly, you can also open work detail page after create a case by doing the following steps:

• Add a script adaptor widget to the hidden widgets area on Add Case page and rename it some distinguish.
• Wire an inbound event from the Page Container’s Send new case information to the Script adaptor’s Receive Event.

• Go to script adator settings, and put the following code:

var self = this;
var coord = payload.coordination;

require(["icm/base/Constants", "icm/util/Coordination"],
    function (Constants, Coordination) {
        console.log("Open new case begin");
        self.caseEdt = payload.caseEditable;
		
		// replace In-basket name in which case created. 
        var workListName = "SDW_My Work";
		
        console.log("part to aftersave");
        console.log(Constants.CoordTopic.AFTERSAVE);
        console.log(coord);
        coord.participate(Constants.CoordTopic.AFTERSAVE, function (context, complete, abort) {
            debugger;
            //Entered Form Info
            console.log("part call back");
            self.checkCount = 0;
            self.caseCreatedFlag = false;
            self.statusChecker = setInterval(function () {
                self.caseEdt.retrieveAttributes(function () {
                    self.checkCount++;
                    console.log("check case states");
                    console.log("checkCount :" + self.checkCount);
                    var caseState = self.caseEdt.caseObject.attributes["CmAcmCaseState"];
                    console.log("caseState : " + caseState);
                    //Working (2) // Completed (3)
                    if (caseState == 2 && !self.caseCreatedFlag) {
                        self.caseCreatedFlag = true;
                        clearInterval(self.statusChecker);
                        delete self.statusChecker;

Note: please change the in-basket name var workListName = “SDW_My Work”

• Save and close the solution once you applied these changes.
• Deploy the solution and test the case. You will see, right after creating a new case, work detail page will be opened without go back to in-basket as described in these screenshots:
