How Is the Escalation Field Being Populated on Problem Records?

Hi,

 

We currently do not have any escalation feature or escalation configuration implemented for Problem Management in our ServiceNow instance. However, I noticed that there is an "Escalation" field available on the Problem record, and this field is being populated with values such as Normal, Moderate, and High.

I would like to understand how this field is functioning in our system. Specifically:

  • What is the purpose of the Escalation field in Problem Management?
  • On what basis are the values (Normal, Moderate, High) being determined and updated?
  • Is the field being updated automatically through any business rule, workflow, flow, SLA, script, or out-of-box functionality?
  • What are the conditions or triggers that cause the escalation value to change?
  • Is there any configuration or customization associated with this field that controls its behavior?

please help clarify how this field works and where the logic behind its updates can be found?
