Hi,
How to attach SLA for tickets which are already closed in the system with current SLA definition settings.
I have few SLA definitions which were recently updated and there are already few closed tickets with that criteria and i want to attach SLA for such OLD tickets with current settings of SLA. I tried to repair SLA but when i repair SLA for those old tickets,No SLA is getting attached at all.
Do let me know how to overcome the issue.
Thanks,
Suresh

I have found that sometimes after performing an SLA Repair, you must update the record after for it to take effect.
Otherwise, perhaps the Start Condition has/was never met?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the reply!!
In this case, the START condition won't match as the tickets were already closed and hence even if we do repair SLA won't attach. Is there a better way to re attach SLA's for these closed tickets?
Thanks,
Suresh

Not sure there is a way, the records must have met the Start condition at one point in their life cycle.
That is just how SLAs work!
