This action supports ConnectWise and Autotask. In Autotask it removes the ticket’s service calls, which also clears the technicians attached to them. Delete resource entries is ConnectWise only, because Autotask has no technician assignment that exists without a service call.
Quick Start
1
Choose your trigger
Use Ticket Update when status changes to “Resolved” or “Cancelled”
2
Filter carefully
Use ticket filters to target only tickets that need schedule cleanup
3
Configure deletion scope
Choose which types of entries to delete using the five configuration options
4
Test first
Test on a few non-critical tickets before running on important data
Configuration options
You can choose which schedule entries to delete with five independent settings:
In Autotask, the four past/future settings apply to the ticket’s service calls. Removing a service call also removes every technician attached to it, so a call shared by two technicians disappears once. A service call that is booked on more than one ticket is kept, not deleted, because removing it would take the visit off the other tickets too; the run reports it as kept. Cancelled service calls are ignored.
Default Behavior
By default, the action deletes all pending (not completed) calendar entries: both past and future. It preserves completed work history.Resource Entries (ConnectWise Only)
In ConnectWise, you can add resources to a ticket without scheduling a specific time slot. These “resource entries” appear in the Schedule section but don’t have calendar dates. Enable the Delete resource entries option to remove not completed resource assignments from the ticket.Full Cleanup Mode
Enable all five options to remove every schedule entry from the ticket, including resource assignments. Use this when completely closing out cancelled tickets.Ticket Selection
The action processes tickets based on your workflow trigger and any filters you’ve configured. Use precise filters to avoid affecting the wrong tickets.What you’ll get
