You’re basically building a multi-stage SLA notification framework in ServiceNow. Here’s how you can implement it cleanly in a PDI using standard platform features.

Best Practice in ServiceNow

Use SLA Definition + SLA Stages + Event-Based Notifications

You will combine:

Task SLA (task_sla)
SLA Percentage tracking
Event Registry
Notifications

Hi @NunnaB 

 

Post creating your custom notification,

 

You can use either the Workflow Editor or Flow Designer to track the elapsed percentage:

  • If using Workflow Editor:
    1. Open your custom or default SLA Workflow and check it out.
    2. Under the Core tab, drag and drop the SLA Percentage Timer activity for your thresholds (e.g., 50%, 75%, 90%).
    3. Drag the Create Event activity after each timer.
    4. Create a custom event (e.g., sla.warning.custom) and pass the percentage value in the Parameter 1 field (e.g., 50 or 75).
  • If using Flow Designer:
    Create an SLA Flow, utilize the Wait For Condition , and trigger the Send Email action to the assigned agent
