Time Triggers

This function enables you to create and manage Time Triggers. Time Triggers run every 15 minutes after the ticket is created and they are used to execute actions under certain pre-defined circumstances automatically after some pre-defined time. When the trigger condition is fulfilled and the actions are performed, the trigger is closed. This means that a trigger can only be executed once for the same ticket.

You can create, edit, clone, delete and activate or deactivate Time Triggers.

To access Automation Triggers, go to Configurations > Business Rules > Time Triggers.
