Is it possible to exclude Weekends and Holidays in calculation of SLA Breach for incident tickets?

Hi guys!

Is it possible to exclude Weekends and Holidays in calculation of SLA Breach for incident tickets? Currently our tickets are getting breach SLA even though it's Weekends/Holidays. We want our timer to stop running if the date is Weekend or Holiday so that our tickets won't breach.

Use schedule in your SLA definaition as below and pick "8-5 weekdays excluding holidays" schedule which is Out of the box,

To add/remove holidays: Open this schedule and add/remove existing holidays per requirement.

Steps:

Hi @Community Alums thank you so much for responding to my question.

In your screenshot, the schedule 8-5 weekdays excluding holidays is that an OOB? or you created in yourself?

Hi @Irene M ,

its OOB, you can configure one if you need.
