    Procedimento

    Perform any of the following actions.
    Nota:
    If the UI16 module link redirection feature is enabled in Service Operations Workspace (SOW) and the UI16 module supports the redirect configuration, navigating through UI16 paths automatically redirects you to the equivalent list or record pages in SOW instead of displaying the UI16 forms or lists. For more information, see Redirect UI16 module links to Service Operations Workspace.
    OptionDescription
    Promote an incident to a major incident manually On the context menu, click Promote to Major Incident. The incident directly becomes a major incident.
    Nota:
    • Only a major incident manager can promote an incident to a major incident. If an incident is in the resolved, closed, or canceled state, the Promote to Major Incident option does not appear on the context menu.

    • When an incident is promoted to a major incident, the incident itself is considered as a major incident and no new incident is created.

      To get this behavior, you need to set the major incident management property Create major incident from candidate – A new incident is created from a candidate as a major incident. The candidate is associated with the new incident as a child. (sn_major_inc_mgmt.com.snc.incident.mim.major_incident_creation) to Promote candidate to a major incident.
