It is possible to transfer all or some of the cases stored in one Insight’s case management system to another one. The only requirement is that both computers have the same version of Insight installed.

Whenever cases need to be transferred from one computer to another one, start by exporting the cases.

1. Go to Cases category of the top level menu and click Export.

3. The cases are now saved as a package in a zip file (with the default name Cases.Package.zip), which can later be copied to a different computer.

NB Whenever a case is exported, a record about it is added to the case’s history.
