    The percentage of open incidents that did not meet the SLA, as calculated by the formula [[Number of incidents missed SLA]] / [[Number of open incidents]] * 100

    Define fixed costs for IT Manager dashboard

    Define generic industry-based fixed costs to analyze impact by channel using the IT Manager dashboard in ITSM Performance Analytics Solutions.

    Before you begin

    Role required: admin

    About this task

    Use the fixed cost model to analyze the cost for incidents and requests across channels (email, phone, self-service, walk-up, virtual agent) for cost management. For example, view current costs per channel and verify whether costs are reduced over time after implementing a solution.

    Cost definitions are stored in the Fixed Cost Definitions [fixed_cost_definitions] table.
