Description
Add supplied outbound and return routing delays.
Administrative records distinguish delegated authority, sign-off assertions, conditional fields, counter-minutes and date boundaries. A half-open delegation period excludes its final date, and staffed-counter time can sum simultaneous counters. Local flags and fees do not authenticate an approval or establish lawful authority or adequate service.
Add supplied outbound and return routing delays.
When to use this tool
Use Record Routing Return Hop Delay when you already have outboundElapsedMinutes, returnElapsedMinutes and need to add supplied outbound and return routing delays.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter outboundElapsedMinutes, returnElapsedMinutes. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read roundTripMinutes. Use the output convention below.
Require both elapsed minutes>=0; sum them.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| outboundElapsedMinutes | Outbound Elapsed Minutes | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| returnElapsedMinutes | Return Elapsed Minutes | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| roundTripMinutes | Round Trip Minutes | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- The two supplied legs must share the intended scope and exclude double-counted waiting. No route, message receipt, actual service time or appropriate performance is verified.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Check controlled policies, original case records, verified roles and account definitions. Apply complete administrative and legal processes when local routing delays, document counts or supplied approval comparisons cannot determine a valid action.
