Trigger an Sla based on a date

Hi All,

I have a requirement where I need to trigger an SLA with Target = Resolution to ensure that it is triggered on the same date as the value of a variable (on catalog item) for example if i choose 25th May 2025  the Sla has to start on that specific date.

Hi @Abhishek Kr47 

I doubt this would be a good or feasible approach. The reason is that SLA works based on conditions, where if the variable has a value and the SLA condition matches that value, the SLA gets triggered; otherwise, it doesn't. The issue is how to retrieve the variable value in the operator value.

Hello @Abhishek Kr47 

 

You can just put filter on variables on the task or ritm table - where-ever you are running SLA/OLA and put it related to today.

@Abhishek Kr47 

you can specify variable in the conditions of your SLA definitions such that SLA triggers on that date

I assume you want SLA on RITM table
