======= GenerateEscalationTimeHandler =======
==== Description ====
This [[en:software:tim:actionhandler|handler]] is used to set the escalation time of a [[en:glossar#Node]] after the expiration of the previously-defined wait time.
At the escalation time, the value of the **"escalationVariable"** [[en:glossar#Process_variable|process variable]] is selected.
This value is used as the name for a new [[en:glossar#Process_variable|process variable]], and its value is set to "escalation".
>> Tip
> This can be used in combination with the [[VariableDecisionHandler]] and determine a process route.

The corresponding timer is the [[en:software:tim:timer:performescalationfornodestimerwithlimit|performEscalationForNodesTimerWithLimit]].

==NodeEscalationHandler==
The GenerateEscalationTimeHandler uses the NodeEscalationHandler, which sets the escalation variable and send the process further.
