    Before you begin

    Role required: sn_process_optimization_analyst, sn_process_optimization_power_user, or sn_process_optimization_admin

    Procedure

    1. Open the finding definition record where you want to add a finding rule.
    2. In the Finding Rules tab, select New.
    3. On the form, fill in the fields.
      For a description of the field values, see Finding rule form.
    4. Right-click the form header, and select Save to save the finding rule record.
    5. Optional: To create additional finding rule within the same chain, select Create next rule (same chain).
      This option opens a new finding rule within the same chain. The sequence value is one higher than the current rule.
    6. Optional: To create additional finding rule within a new chain, select Create next rule (new chain).
      This option opens a new finding rule within a new chain.

    Example

    In this example, a finding rule is created to find when someone requests an approval on an incident record, and that approval is approved by the same user. Because the Duration min field is set to one day, the rule only triggers when the approval is approved more than 24 hours after it was requested.
