We need to add "Awaiting RCA Review" in between "Root Cause Analysis" and "Fix in Progress" stage in problem management form.

 

In "Awaiting RCA Review" stage we need to add approval filed

In "Awaiting RCA Review" stage SLA clock should be pause till someone approves the problem and if they reject approval then  it should go back to RCA stage

Hi @Zach Koch 

 

Thanks a lot for your quick response, now i have added "Awaiting RCA Review" State in Problem but my next question is i wanted to add "UI Action" so that problem will move to "Awaiting RCA Review" state

and in "Awaiting RCA Review"  state  we need to add approval filed

also In "Awaiting RCA Review" stage SLA clock should be pause till someone approves the problem and once they approve it will move "Fix In Progress" State and if they reject approval then  it should go back to RCA stage.

Hi @abc1233 ,

 

To add a new state to the Problem workflow in ServiceNow, first navigate to the Problem State Model, then define the new state by filling in the Model State form and selecting "New." Next, establish Model State Transitions from and to your new state by selecting "New" on the Model State Transitions context menu and filling out the "From" and "To" fields. 

 

 

  1. From the navigation filter, type System Policy > State Models and select it.
  1. Locate and open the existing Problem Model.
  1. Create the New State 
  1. From the Problem Model form, select the Context Menu icon (three dots).
  1. Select New from the Model States context menu.
  1. On the Model State form, fill in the fields:
    • State: Enter the name of your new state.
    • Initial state: Check this box if this will be the first state for your model.
    • Click Submit.
  1. Add a Transition for the New State 
  1. From the Model State form, select the Display/hide hierarchical lists icon.
  1. Select New from the Model State Transitions context menu.
  1. On the Model State Transitions form, fill in the fields:
    • From: Select the state the problem will move from.
    • To: Select your new state.
    • Automatic transition: Select this option if the state transition should happen automatically when the conditions are met.
    • Click Submit.
