The state transition dates can be changed, for that select the option Work | Work | Request Management
- The request list is presented
- Select the request you wish to change the state to
- On the "Operations" link, select the option "Change State Transitions"
When changing the state transition dates, you must consider:
- Changing the state transition dates affects the SLA start and end dates;
- The state transition dates must be later than the Request date;
- The state transition dates must be previous than the current date;
- The chronological order of the state transition dates must be respected;
- When the request has a work order:
- The state transition dates of the Request will be changed according to the Requests Workflow;
- If the Work Order has associated to Requests, the request transition dates will be changed according to the Work Orders Workflow configuration
- The SLA start and end dates of the Work order will be changed according to the Request Workflow configuration;
- If the Work Order has Requests associated to the SLA start and end dates of those requests, they will be changed according to the Work Orders Workflow configuration
- Example: scenario with a Request associated to a Work Order
- The Request state Being Executed is configured to change the state of a Work Order to Being Executed
- The final Request state is configured to execute any change in the Work Order
- The Request state transition are the following
- 2020-07-0214:42:39 transition from Waiting for Approval to Approved
- 2020-07-0214:47:41 transition from Approved to Being Executed
- 2020-07-0214:48:14 transition from In Progress to Executed
- The Work Order state transitions associated are
- 2020-07-0214:47:22 transition from Waiting for Approval to Approved
- 2020-07-0214:47:41 transition from Approved to Being Executed
- 2020-07-0214:48:14 transition from In Progress to Executed
- Changing the Request state transitions for
- 2020-07-0214:42:39 transition from Waiting for Approval to Approved
- 2020-07-0214:48:41 transition from Approved to Being Executed
- 2020-07-0214:49:14 transition from In Progress to Executed
- This change causes an error on the chronological error of the Work Order state transitions. This transition will try to insert the transition dates as follows
- 2020-07-0214:47:22 transition from Waiting for Approval to Approved
- 2020-07-0214:48:41 transition from Approved to Being Executed
- 2020-07-0214:48:14transition from In Progress to Executed
- According to the Request workflow configuration, only the transition date of the Approved state to the In Progress state affects the Work Order. This causes inconsistency on the chronological order.
