Flow formPurpose
You can associate a service level rule with an assignment or an assignment service. The service level can define a goal and a deadline for processing this assignment, and can execute activities if the goal or the deadline is not met. This assignment-level service level is distinct from any service level associated with the entire flow.
At runtime, an internal countdown clock (measuring the completion of the assignment against the goal and deadline times computed from the service level rule) starts when the assignment is created.
A user who receives an assignment is expected to complete it before the goal time interval is reached.
indicates that a service level is applied to an assignment or assignment service shape in the flow.
