this extension.<br><br>The use case is as explained more or less above, where the due date is determined either via the logging and classification of the ticket, or via contact with the requester. Most of the service levels that we have do have very hard due dates, just a couple of categories have soft due dates. Sometimes the due dates need to move, even in the categories that have hard SLA due dates, simply because of incomplete information from the requester.<br>
<br>While we are on the topic of improvements.<br><br>I would also like to see the due date shift the amount of time that the ticket was stalled upon re-open. For our organization we use the stalled status to indicate that the "ball is out of our court" in other words we are waiting for input from some other source.<br>
