How to configure a timer in workflows
On many occasions, business requirements are based on time so let's understand this by an example: Send a reminder e-mail for the approver for a request approval or hold the e-mail if you want to send a notification periodically based on the requirements. The important thing to note down is that in such scenarios, you need to configure the time in the workflow. For facilitating a time-related feature, Service-Now provides the Timer activity, which pauses the workflow for a specified period of time.
