There written in the [public document][1]: > Normally, a case is started non persistent. This means it is stored in memory only. As soon as the process hits a task switch the case and its tasks will be made persistent by storing them to the system database. I just found out that you can make an ICase persisted without any TaskSwitch element in the process by setting an `additionalProperty`. As soon as the line of code is evaluated: ivy.case.setAdditionalProperty("anything-will-do", "some-value"); The `ICase` will be persisted *immediately*. Is this a non-public behaviour or a bug in the API? P.S: there is a demo project to demonstrate this behaviour at https://www.mediafire.com/?hxi3z0v27dhjxh4 [1]: http://developer.axonivy.com/doc/latest/DesignerGuideHtml/ivy.concepts.html#ivy-wf-states
