Stage Breach Notifier

The stage breach notifier functionality notifies the owner and list of users when a stage of a work item is breached.

Features

  • Stage-specific time-based triggers: It enables you to set up stage-specific time thresholds for each work item or ticket stage. This customization allows you to tailor the automation to the specific needs and priorities of different stages in your workflow.
  • Automated notification and communication: When a work item exceeds the defined time period for a particular stage, automation automatically generates and sends updates to the internal discussion of the work item. This feature ensures that relevant team members are promptly informed of delays or potential issues, facilitating better communication and collaboration.

How to use stage breach notifier

  1. Take the data from the table below and create a CSV file. Make the required changes, such as adding custom stages, adjusting turnaround times for specific subtypes if required and deleting rows where turnaround times do not apply to stages.
  • For example, if you want to add a custom stage called uat for the Ticket work item, you can add a row with Ticket,uat,2 to the CSV file. Similarly, if you do not want to set a turnaround time for the in_development stage, you can remove the row with Ticket,in_development,2 from the CSV file.
  • If you want to set a different turnaround time for a specific subtype, you can add a row with work_item,stage_name,turn_around_time,subtype_name to the CSV file. For example, if you want to set a turnaround time of 3 days for the work_in_progress stage for the Ticket work item with the Support subtype, you can add a row with Ticket,work_in_progress,3,Support to the CSV file.
