To create a new case, click on the vertical ellipsis icon (⋮) located at the top right corner of the Cycle execution detail section and select the Create new case option from the dropdown menu. Once you click on the Create new case option, the Create Case modal window will appear on the screen where you can create a case. For details regarding how to create a case, please see Writing Cases.

A case created within a Cycle can only be in Published status.
Users can also create a new case from the Cycle Cases detail page.
