Hello Listers, Congrats to the ARSlist Award winners.
ARS 6.3 MS SQL Server 2000 Midtier 6.3 Homegrown Helpdesk forms Just as a sanity check I thought I would ask if anyone has a good process for "send out an email notification every X hours if the ticket is still at a status of New"? After the obvious failure of setting the escalation time to 2 Hrs ( Ticket entered 1 second after Esc doesn't go out in email for 3 hrs 59 minutes 59 seconds) I decided to put a field on the HD form that will be populated with create time + 2 hrs. The escalation will run every 5 or 10 minutes and check the escalation time stored on create. It will increase the escalation time by 2 hours if the status is still New. The Run If will be 'ESC_Time' < $TIMESTAMP$ AND Status = "New" The reason I am running this by the List is that I wanted to know if there was a slicker way to do this. Anyone? . . . Bueller? Bueller?
