Hi Community,

How do you change the incident state from New to automatically show "In Progress" on incident assignment?

Many thanks

Hi Steve,

In our case we flip the incident status to In progress when assigned_to is filled in not when Assignment group is filled in. If that's the use case you are following then you can use Before update BR with following conditions.

Incident State = new

Assigned to [is not empty]

In the Action tab you can set Action as 

Incident State [to] in progress

Hi,

 

In Addition,

Try with Actions sections to set state to in Progress directly without using scripting and use Before Update Business Rule.

Check below screenshot

Use Actions Section:

State To In Progress

Please Mark correct/Helpful answer if it help you in any way
