How to add an "On-Hold" button in the Problem Ticket screen to pause SLA?

[surajchacherkar]

Hi All,

we have a requirement to add a "Pending/On-Hold" button in the Problem Ticket screen. The purpose is to pause the SLA when the root cause analysis depends solely on a third-party vendor.

Additionally, this button should be visible only to the member of Incident Manager team.

Has anyone implemented something similar or can guide how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

You have State model defined for your problem table

So it's not allowing you to move from State A to State B

You will have to update your state model so that you can achieve your requirement and update is allowed and it allows moving from your current State to On-Hold

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @palanikumar , I have follow the same steps which you have mentioned,

I’ve created a UI action, but it’s not working as expected. When I click the bottom button, it opens a new Problem record correctly. However, the top button doesn’t respond at all—clicking it does nothing.

Could you please help me troubleshoot this issue or guide me on what might be missing?

Thank you!

Hi @surajchacherkar ,

I gave script for UI Action without Client checkbox checked.

For this one, you can use this code

function onPendinOnHold(){

     g_form.setValue("state","105");

     g_form.save();

}
