  2. On the Workflow tab, click Life cycle.
  3. Create an alternate stage: Click , and then enter a unique name in the text box.
    • To create a new alternate stage, in the Case life cycle section, click Alternate stage .
    • To convert a primary stage to an alternate stage, in the menu next to the stage name, click Set as alternate stage.
  4. Optional: To let the case worker decide which stage the case enters after this stage, in the stage property panel, select Wait for a user action.
  5. Click Save.
