The View and manage rule timers page displays a list of all rule timers configured in the Platform. What you can see and do in this page is determined by your privileges. If you cannot see or take actions that you think you should be able to access, contact your Platform administrator.
By default, the table displays all rule timers defined in the Platform. If your Platform has many rule timers and you want to search for one or more specific timers, click the arrow next to Filter at the top of the page () and specify search criteria. Note that the text fields accept the asterisk wildcard character (*). For details about using this search area, refer to the topic, Searching for Rule TImers.
By default the table displays the list of rule timers in alphabetical order, by name (Timer column). This table provides multiple column sorting capability. To learn how to use it, refer to the topic, Sorting by Multiple Columns.
You can control the number of table rows shown on each page of the table and navigate the table in different ways. For more information, refer to the topic, Navigating Tables for Expression Rules, State Machines, and Rule Timers.
