TIBCO iProcess® Engine 11.10.0

# Closing Cases

The following command instructs the iProcess background process to perform an instruction. This is a command line option only.

Note | This command requests confirmation from the user (with an “Are you sure you want to do this” message), but this may be suppressed with a `-y` flag on the end of the command line enabling it to be run from a batch file. If you want to close a large number of cases you should consider using the `swbatch` utility instead. See Batch Processing Cases.

To close one or more cases of a procedure, enter the following command:

    swutil CLOSE procname caselist [-y] [-d] [-P priority]

where:

| • | `procname` is the procedure name (including sub-procedures).

| • | `caselist` is a list of case numbers to be closed separated by commas and with dashes denoting ranges of case numbers, for example, `2,5-10` denotes case 2 and cases 5 to 10 inclusive.

| • | `-y` suppresses the request for confirmation from the user.

| • | `-d` closes cases without triggering events that are set for the `OnBeforeClose` event or the `OnAfterClose` event. If you are running the `swutil CLOSE` command without the `-d` option, these events are triggered before or after closing the case. For more information about the `OnBeforeClose` event and the `OnAfterClose` event, see TIBCO iProcess Modeler Procedure Management.

| • | `-P` `priority` specifies the internal message queue priorities. For more information about message priorities, see "Message Prioritizing" in the appropriate TIBCO iProcess Engine (Database) Administrator’s Guide.
