Hello,

If you want to do that, you have to register in your BDM the case ID.

By conception, the BDM and the process are independent. A process references a BDM and can manipulate it at a moment, but keep in mind MULTIPLE cases, MULTIPLE processes can register a BDM value.

So, by conception, if one case is important for your BDM, you have to create an attribute "myImportantCaseId" in your BDM, and save it when the case creates / modify it.

Second solution, the link between the BDM and the case is stored somewhere in the Bonita Engine database (until the case is not deleted), so you may find a SQL to find this relation? Of course, when the case will be deleted, this information will be deleted at the same time.

Hope this help,
