Review the fields on the Measure Consequence form.

A measure consequence belongs to one threshold rule. To create one, see [Define measure consequences for the threshold rules](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/telecom-media-technology/define-threshold-consequences-spm.md).
