I've been creating Incidents that are using the Default SLA Workflow. Looking at that workflow, I expected to get email notifications at 50%, 75%, and 100% with respect to the breach time.
I'm getting the emails at both the 50% and 75% intervals, but I don't get an email when the 100% mark is reached.
Here's a specific example:
We have a SLA definition (which uses Default SLA Workflow) with a duration of 9 hours. It has a schedule associated with it defining a business day as Monday thru Friday from 8 am to 5 pm.
I created an Incident which uses that SLA definition at 9 am on Wednesday 02/08. Taken into consideration the duration and the schedule, the incident was set to breach on Thursday (02/09) at 9 am. I believe this is correct.
However, I only received emails at the 50 and 75% intervals. I got an email at 1:30 pm on Wednesday (02/08) and another at 3:45 pm on Wednesday (02/08). This is correct.
The Incident breached/expired at 9 am on Thursday (02/09), which is correct, but I did NOT receive an email at this 100% mark.
Is my understanding of the email functionality associated with the Default SLA Workflow incorrect? Why do I not get an email once 100% has elapsed/expired?

So, I noticed that your workflow isn't quite what comes out of the box. Last thing I can think of to try before sending to HI support. Update the workflow so it looks like out of the box.

I appreciate you taking the time to help. I've learned about some things from your suggestions.
I checked the event log, and the only events I see are sla.warning. There are no sla.warning.breach events. I suppose this confirms that the 'breach' email at 100% isn't getting fired.
I'm going to focus on messing with the stop condition on the sla definition to see what effect that may have.

Michael,
thanks for the reply. I checked the properties you suggested and my screens look just like the ones you posted. I think everything is ok there.

Even though you SLA might not be stopping, the notification should still trigger when the SLA gets to 100%. Did you check the workflow to make sure there were no errors? Access one of your SLA's, and under Related Links > Click Show Workflow
Then confirm they are in Blue, meaning they executed, and not Red, where there is an error:
