## Monitor the Case Escalation Rule Queue

When Salesforce triggers a case escalation rule that has time-dependent actions, use the escalation rule queue to view or cancel pending actions.

### Required Editions

<table class="slds-table slds-table_bordered slds-max-medium-table_stacked slds-m-bottom_small permission">
            <colgroup>
              <col style="width:50%">
              <col style="width:50%">
            </colgroup>
            <thead class="slds-text-title_caps ">
              <tr class="">
                <th scope="colgroup" class="slds-cell-wrap" colspan="2" style="text-align:center;vertical-align:top;" id="d157786e87">User Permissions
                  Needed</th>
              </tr>
            </thead>
            <tbody>
              <tr class="">

              </tr>
            </tbody>
          </table>

1. From Setup, enter Case Escalations in the Quick Find box, then select **Case Escalations**.
2. Click **Search** to view all pending actions for any active case escalation rule, or set the filter criteria and click **Search** to view only the pending actions that match the criteria. The filter isn't case-sensitive.
    
     
    | Filter Option | Definition |
    | --- | --- |
    | Case To Escalate | The Case Number of the escalated case. The Case Number is a unique, automatically generated number used for identifying the case. |
    | Escalation Rule | The name of the rule used to escalate the case. |
    | Rule Entry | The order in which the rule entry will be processed. A rule entry is a condition that determines how a case escalation rule is processed. Each escalation rule can have a maximum of 3000 rule entries. |
    | Escalation Action | The time criteria specified for the case to escalate as defined in the rule entry. |
    | Ignore Business Hours | Indicates if the Ignore Business Hours checkbox is selected on the rule entry, meaning that the rule entry is in effect at all times and ignores your organization's business hours. |
    | Escalate At | The date and time at which the case will escalate as defined in the rule entry. Dates and times display in the time zone of the user viewing the escalation rule queue. |
    | Added Date | The date and time at which the case was added to the queue. Dates and times display in the time zone of the user viewing the escalation rule queue. |
3. To cancel a pending action, select the action you want to cancel and click **Delete**.

## Monitor the Entitlement Process Queue

When Salesforce triggers an entitlement process that has time-dependent milestone actions, use the entitlement process queue to view or cancel pending actions.
