Hi Suresh,

This usually happens because the dot-walk path doesn’t always work directly in SLA conditions. Here’s what you can try:

1. Verify the path:
   The time zone is on cmn_location, so u_affected_user.location.time_zone is correct, but it may not resolve in SLA definitions.

2. Recommended workaround:

   • Create a new field on your task (e.g., u_affected_user_time_zone).

   • Use a Business Rule to populate it with current.u_affected_user.location.time_zone.

   • In the SLA definition, set the Time zone source to this new field.

3. Check your data:
   Make sure the affected user has a location, and that location has a time zone defined.

This approach ensures the SLA always gets the correct time zone based on the user’s location.

Hope this helps!
