When a hearing date has passed, the case page asks what happened.

  1. Click Record outcome & next date in the yellow bar (1). The same button is in Courts & Hearings → Hearings.
Outcome form: 1 what happened, 2 proceedings, 3 next date

  1. Choose what happened (1) — adjourned, arguments heard, evidence recorded, judgment reserved, and so on.
  2. Write a short note of the proceedings (2).
  3. Enter the next date (3) and what it is fixed for. AOMS creates the next hearing, updates the case and reminds you before it.
  4. If clients use the portal, leave "Client can see these proceedings" ticked to share the note with them, or untick it to keep it internal.

Tell the client

WhatsApp update (3 on the case page) opens WhatsApp with a ready message about the last hearing and next date. Check it and press send. Clients with portal access also get an email.
