Business Continuity Management RTO Gap Calculation

[chaluisant]

We are in the process of deploying BCM.  Trying to understand how RTO Gaps are calculated.  I have created sample BIA and completed the RTO Impact  and Dependency Assessments.  I also have a Plan with a defined Scope, Loss Scenario and completed the Asset Dependencies and Recovery Strategies.  Can't get the RTO Gap Workspace section to populate:

Thanks in advance for your help

Good morning, I am also interested in this process.  Have you learned anything on your question since you posted it?

Thank you.

Hi Robert,

Yes.  There is a Business Rule in the sn_bcp_plan_asset table called GetRTOGapDuration which controls the calculation of the gap.  It requires both the recovery_time_objective and recovery_time_achievable fields for each plan asset to have data:

Here is the BR:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {

	// Add your code here
	var recoveryTimeObjectiveString = current.recovery_time_objective.starts_at;
	var recoveryTimeAchievableString = current.recovery_time_achievable.starts_at;
	
	var isRtoGapUnobtainable = !recoveryTimeObjectiveString || !recoveryTimeAchievableString;
	
	if (isRtoGapUnobtainable) {
		current.recovery_time_objective_gap = '';
		return;
	}
	
	var recoveryTimeObjectiveDateTime = new GlideDateTime(recoveryTimeObjectiveString);
	var recoveryTimeAchievableDateTime = new GlideDateTime(recoveryTimeAchievableString);
	var isRtoGapPresent = recoveryTimeObjectiveDateTime.compareTo(recoveryTimeAchievableDateTime) === -1;
	var rtoGap;

	if (isRtoGapPresent) {
		rtoGap = new GlideDuration(recoveryTimeAchievableDateTime.getNumericValue() - recoveryTimeObjectiveDateTime.getNumericValue());
	}
	else {
		rtoGap = new GlideDuration(0);
	}
	
	current.recovery_time_objective_gap = rtoGap;

})(current, previous);

The calculations are now working for me:

Hey, does anyone know where this Recovery Time Achievable fields gets populated by? Is it calculated by a rule, or it needs to be manually populated?
