# ◾ How to Add Cases to Sessions :::info The page explains adding [**Cases**](/doc/cases-of-sessions-pTlkcAzVwk) to [**Sessions**](/doc/sessions-2aZ5cOyh5C) inside the Standardized Patient Administration module. ::: After **creating Sessions** inside a [**Cast sheet**](/doc/cast-sheets-YRPTbYPckT), you can add **Cases to request and confirm** selected SPs. :::info **Cases** in SPA can be easily tailored to the various patient scenarios of your training center: you can import the requirements of existing Cases from your [Cases](/doc/case-manager-QdAIr4bLwJ) library or add a **custom subject** to fill in SP search requirements as needed when [**recruiting** **SPs**](/doc/how-to-recruit-sps-for-sessions-ZN12yo42cy).  After adding a Case, you can choose between two subject options: * [***Add Cases to Import Case Requirements***](/doc/how-to-add-cases-to-sessions-TPza7EyzXV) * [***Adding a Custom Subject***](/doc/how-to-add-cases-to-sessions-TPza7EyzXV)  ::: The duration of each Case (encounter) is in line with the start and end dates of the [**Session**](/doc/sessions-2aZ5cOyh5C) to which the appointment was added. ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/48ddf0a7-308b-4fe9-b28a-e3ce1797eaa8/142be5a6-56f7-441f-a61f-629eb63d834a/spa8.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=228ba02b3887d2b198aca95324bbb71a3b1546036e0d65920d66e0eb6b55e6df&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =2502x1487") Your selected SPs will receive **requests** via the [**SPA Mobile Application**](/doc/spa-mobile-application-aS1sW4QEDb)**,** indicating the time and date of the Session, with the **Case title** or the **Custom subject** in the subject: ![](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/6c0da235-ff99-49fd-81af-d32f613692dd/4b9ec674-f0df-4ad5-ab23-df473cc4a33b/76908032.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=6685d58c132a8c947d5cc4233ba668617d9fc649fe5e56c97a1c6ef55b4ec8f0&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject) 1.
