Need to add a measurement of time all tasks and request that starts and ends with pending vendor

[Sounderrajan K]

Need to determine a method to add a measurement of time all SCTASKs and enhancement request that starts and ends when State is set to Pending Vendor, then moved out of Pending Vendor state.

We may need to add a hidden SLA to measure this, or determine another way.

Is there any best practices to implement this functionality?

Hi @Sounderrajan K 

The only option here is to use an SLA. Create the SLA on the vendor-specific state, consider the conditions carefully, and then use it for evaluation. There’s no other way to achieve this.

Alternatively, you could create metrics, but with metrics you would need to add logic to filter records based on state transitions.

Hi @Sounderrajan K 

I hope the metric-driven solution works for you. If you have any doubts, you can watch my video to get it done.

Hi Atul,

Thanks for the information. I would like to use SLA to calculate the total duration of pending vendor time.So I have created new field in catalog task table called "Pending vendor time"(duration type field) and I would like to map the value of business elapsed time(duration type field) from task sla with Pending vendor time in catalog task using flow designer.However, its not updating the value.Could anyone kindly help me with this?
