There was a mismatch when the case was created or modified:

"O365 Group" tab
Users in the group
"LawToolBox" tab 
  • LawToolBox tab can see the matter in the app under "My Matters" 
  • LawToolBox tab controls which users get reminders
  • Control what matters show in the report for that user
  • If you see an Icon

Opption B: Share Matter

  • Ask another user to re-share the matter with you
  • Go to "Share Matter", remove the problem user and re-add to force update

Notes:


Why am I seeing these issues?

There are many reasons this may happen and LawToolBox does not have visibility into the cause of the issue. Most users experience this rarely with one case. If this happens in all of your cases, please reach out to our helpdesk.


This issue occurs in your Microsoft 365 tenant due to delays in a new group provisioning, interruptions of the request when adding new users, accidentally leaving the group, being removed by someone else, name or email changes, etc.


Still have trouble?
