How Do Maintenance Plan Triggers Work?

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working with the Maintenance Management capabilities in ServiceNow, and I’ve encountered a question regarding the trigger types available when configuring the schedule of a Maintenance Plan.

I see that ServiceNow offers several trigger options — Meter, Condition, Script, and Duration or Meter — but I'm not fully sure how each one works, when they actually fire, or what conditions must be met for them to execute.

I tried running some tests with Meter, Condition, and Script, but they didn’t execute, so I'm not sure if I'm missing a configuration step or if these triggers require specific scenarios to run correctly.

Could someone help clarify how each trigger type functions?
If possible, I would greatly appreciate a practical example for each trigger type (how to configure it and what makes it run).

Thanks in advance for your support!
