Hi Govardhan,



You can acheive it by using "Notification" activity in workflow.

Hi Govardhana,



You need to open the Workflow Editor and search for the Service Catalog Request workflow. Then add a notification after the Begin.


From the below picture you can see the example.

Here when ever anyone select an order, a notification occurs.



thanks

Hi madhava,


I have a service catalog in that user will initiate time and date of the outage(updates of any server or anything) once he submits then ritm will be created and then


workflow should start and it has to send notification on user slected date and time ..


Hi Govaradhana,



Goto Workflow editor and select Help icon Workflow Property icon with a i symbol, select condition and add the filter condition as Actual Start -> on -> YOUR_DATE.



Or else goto the Schedule and give your selected date and time.



thanks
