John,

Should work but I'd make the process a little more data driven..

Instead of having the escalation calculate all this and chocking an
escalation thread, I'd set that delete time to a temp field at the time of
submitting the record. For e.g.. create a temp field called ztmpDeleteTime.
Set the time $TIMESTAMP$ + 86400 to it using a filter..

Then have the Escalation check 'ztmpDeleteTime' < $TIMESTAMP$ and mark the
record for deletion using another temp field that you have that escalation
set say 'ztmpDelete' to Y.. Do not have the escalation delete it again for
the purpose of not choking the escalation thread. Have a filter that
performs that delete when the record is marked for deletion and the $USER$
is the escalation user.  It would be more efficient especially over a large
number of records..

Joe

  Hi All

  Brain cramp today
  Can someone confirm that this statement is true!
  I am performing a delete action in an escalation for deleting all items in
a form 24 hours and beyond.
  Let me rephrase
  I want to leave items in the form for 24 hours from the submit date.

  'Submit Date' <  ( $TIMESTAMP$ - 86400)
