Milestone triggers

Create a milestone in a Sample process map with the following information.

Milestone Name	Target Date	Trigger Firing Target
Milestone 1	2 days from the time the job is started.	+1 day 0 day -1 day

Create a job on the Sample map at T0 = 12 o'clock on 26.09.2016.

As the milestone target date is 2 days from the date the job was created, the target date will be 12 o'clock on 28.09.2016 (the business calendar is off).

• If the milestone is not achieved, a trigger is executed on the following dates:

  1. 12 o'clock on 27.09.2016 - for a trigger execution target of - 1 day

  2. 12 o'clock on 28.09.2016 - for a trigger execution target of 0 day

  3. 12 o'clock on 29.09.2016 - for a trigger execution target of + 1 day

• If the milestone is achieved, for example, on 18.00.00 27.09.2016 (6 hours after the 1st trigger is executed), only the first trigger is executed on 12.00.00 27.09.2016 because, at this time, the milestone was not achieved. The second and third triggers are not executed, because the milestone was achieved before the second and third trigger execution target dates.

The actual trigger execution date also depends on the monitor interval time. For example, if the monitor is configured to check every hour, and the last time the monitor checked the system was 12.20 and the trigger execution date falls on 12.30, the actual trigger is executed at 01.20 (the next time the monitor checks the system).
