P1 and P2 Incidents Remaining in 'Resolved' State

Hello,

My high priority incidents that have been resolved are supposed to auto-close after a certain amount of time, but they are remaining in a state of 'Resolved'.

I am familiar with the system properties page that autocloses incidents as well as the auto-close business rule, however the OOB script purposely does not query as I have copied : gr.addQuery('priority','NOT IN','1,2');   I need my higher-priority resolved incidents to auto-close at a different time from the lower priority incidents. This is only dealing with resolved incidents overall.

Thanks in advance ,

Cliff

Hi,



Try the following solution:



Create a new system property for the high priority incidents and put the value of the system property on "Days" not "Hours".



Create a new business with the same script as the OOB BR and just put the name of your newly created system property.



Edit the old BR whith a condition on the priority of the incident



Now create a new "Schedule Item" similar to the OOB "Autoclose Incidents" containing the name of your new BR.

Hi Cliff, which version are you on right now?


The Incident state model changed recently with Helsinki I believe.


We still use the values state but from now on we're using state values that makes sense like "Resolved" or "Closed"  



On a technical note, the new state model is supported by a few Script Includes.


Thank you for the info Stefan. I am running Geneva right now, although we are going to be moving to Helsinki in the first quarter of '17. Resolved and Closed is what values I am working with in this question, but good to hear


If you could share your script I'd take a stab at it!


Also, if you're an admin, type scripts into the Filter Navigator to test your scripts real quick!


I am early into the script, and left out some logic I was not sure on (not a conventional approach I know. Im an admin, thank you for the tip.



// automatically close   P1/P2 incidents that are resolved


// fpr 14 days or more.






//var ps = gs.getProperty('glide.ui.autoclose.time');


var limit;




if(limit > 125 ){


  //Get a schedule by name to calculate duration


  var schedRec = new GlideRecord('cmn_schedule');


  schedRec.get('name', '8-5 weekdays excluding holidays');


  if (typeof GlideSchedule != 'undefined')


  var sched = new GlideSchedule(schedRec.sys_id);


  else


  var sched = new Packages.com.glide.schedules.Schedule(schedRec.sys_id);



  //Get the current date/time in correct format for duration calculation


  var actualDateTime = new GlideDateTime();


  actualDateTime.setDisplayValue(gs.nowDateTime());



  //Query for resolved incident records


  var gr = new GlideRecord('incident');


  gr.addQuery('state', 6);


  gr.addQuery('priority','1,2');


  gr.query();


  gr.setLimit(10);


  while(gr.next()){



  gr.state = 7;


  gr.active = false;


  gr.comments = 'Incident automatically closed after ' + limit + ' hours in the Resolved state.';


  gr.update();


  }
