OLA is not pausing

Hi,

 

I have an SLA defined for incident table. The SLA is defined to be paused when the the incident state is changed to "On Hold".

This is working fine so far.

 

I also have an OLA defined for incident_task table.

The OLA is defined to be paused when the the parent incident state is changed to "On Hold":

Incident.Incident state is On Hold

This is not working. The OLA is not pausing when the parent incident changes to On Hold.

 

What can I do?

Thanks

As a work-around I had to create a custom business rule on incident table. When incident state changes from In Progress to OnHold,  I change the incident_task state to Pending, and viceversa, when the incident state changes from OnHold to InProgress then I change the incident_task state to Open.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

I don't have script includes.

I do have custom business rules on incident_table. I changes the order but didn't work. I even deactivated, but it is still not working

Thanks

Hi @jose_quinonez ,

 

Have you ensured to set the condition correct? Please also note, that there is an automated synchronization between states on parent / child incidents:

Hi Anders,

Thank you for your response.

The problem is not about a parent-child incidents, but about a change in an incident that does not reflect on the incident_task sla.

Thanks
