Can Anyone Please explain How the Schedule Source field & schedule Source works in SLA definition?

Hi Lavu,

The behaviour you are seeing is correct and expected. SLA can consider dynamic schedules on the of creating sla_task but, it doesn't consider changes on schedule once it has been created.

Hi,

 

https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/london-it-service-management/page/product/service-level-management/task/t_CreateAnSLADefinition.html

 

This has information what you are looking for. This enables to define SLA to follow the schedule based on fields defined on TASK.

eg, you can create a schedule field on sys_user_group table and have it used in SLA definition so that when incident gets assigned to particular group, it will follow the schedule of that group. Likewise, you can leverage schedule fields from CMDB , business services etc.

Hi, The schedule source field allows you to dynamically use the schedule instead of one schedule. One of the example is : Create a schedule reference field on group table, and then go to any SLA of incident table, use schedule source field to walk down to assignment goup's schedule field, like assignment_group.u_schedule. This way, you can have one sla with dynamic schedules defined on ground table
