Duplicate SLA Records on Reopened Incidents (Incident SLA Report)

Hi Community,

I’m encountering an issue while reporting on the Incident SLA table.

We’re seeing duplicate SLA metric entries for certain incident tickets—specifically for those that have been reopened. I am applying following filters in the report:

  • Stage is not Cancelled

  • SLA Definition contains Resolution

…the report still includes multiple entries for the same incident. Upon investigation, it appears that each time the incident is reopened, a new Resolution SLA is triggered, which results in duplicate records.

Has anyone faced a similar situation? Is there a recommended way to filter or handle such cases in reporting ?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Apurva Tatekar 

If that's the case, please check the reset condition in your SLA. The reset condition states that when you cancel the old SLA and trigger a new one, it will always create a duplicate.
