Hi,

Response SLA means that end user has created a ticket he is supposed to be in formed that to whom his request has been assigned. Like for any incident created end user to informed within 3o mints or 1 hour that his ticket has been assigned to someone.

After a ticket has been assigned to a user now resolution time for that tickets starts and ends when user resolved/closed the incident.

 

Resolution SLA cloud be retroactive means time will be taken from the time incident created.

 

Hope I have explained well.

 

Thanks

Please Hit Correct, ️Helpful depending on the impact of the response

Response SLA is kicked off when ticket is created. Resolution is kicked off when ticket is assign to technician and it will not complete until ticket is closed.

Hi,

 

Seems there is no much difference but to differentiate the type of SLA whether it is "Response" or "Resolution".

Hey Harish, 

 

Response SLA is calculated from the time the incident is created and assigned to a group till it is assigned to someone from the group. It is the time taken to acknowledge the ticket.

 

The condition should say that assigned is empty in start condition and assigned to is not empty in end condition.

 

 

 

Resolution SLA is calculated from the time the incident is created till the time the incident is resolved.

Hope you got your answer
