Hi,<div><br></div><div>This would roughly be how the SLA plugin works:</div><div><span style="color:rgb(34, 34, 34);font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px"><ul>
<li style="margin-left:15px">When a ticket is first created the SLA plugin makes sure that the Starts date is set to the first possible "Business" date (e.g. the next day on 8:30 in the morning).</li><li style="margin-left:15px">
It then "if configured" sets the SLA to the default value of a queue.</li><ul><li style="margin-left:15px">In our case, we have a scrip that sets the SLA value based on the combination of ticket type (Incident, Problem, Change) and ticket priority (1 to 4).<br>
</li></ul><li style="margin-left:15px">When the SLA is set for a ticket it then sets the Due date based on the Starts date & takes the working hours/holidays into account.</li><li style="margin-left:15px">In addition, on SLA change it sets the Due date accordingly (again based on the Starts date).</li>
</ul></span></div><div>More information on this page:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://search.cpan.org/dist/RT-Extension-SLA/lib/RT/Extension/SLA.pm.Doc" target="_blank">http://search.cpan.org/dist/RT-Extension-SLA/lib/RT/Extension/SLA.pm.Doc</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>To clarify the dates:</div><div><ul><li>Starts: first working day based on business hours</li><li>Started: when someone first replies.</li><li>Due: roughly the deadline, is set by the SLA plugin.</li>
<ul>
<li>In your case:</li><li>Response: Means it's set to Start + 2h. That's the first deadline, once someone responses the next will start.</li><li>Resolve: After a response the SLA plugin will set the due date based on this config, thus Start + 4h.</li>
</ul><li>Closed: is set when you close a ticket.</li></ul><div>Below our SLA config, might help a little when it comes to business hours:</div></div><div><br></div><div><div><font face="'courier new', monospace"># ---</font></div>
