SLA pause/resume and further update case priority does not accommodate paused time

Posted on by 193

Hello experts, 

I need your help and advice regarding pause and resume for SLA which I created for a client who also updates the case priority more frequently.

I have a Response SLA which has 3 SLA items, each one of them for different case priority. Each priority has different "Failure" time configured.

Let's consider the below configuration for Response time:

High Priority - 1 hour

Medium Priority - 2 hours

Low Priority - 3 hours

Case status "On Hold" will pause and "In Progress" will resume the SLA which is already configured in both SLA KPI and SLA Items level.

The Issue:

When I kept the SLA on paused for some time and then resume the SLA, it updates with the new Failure time. But once I further update the Case priority, the new Failure Time is updated without adding the amount of time the SLA was in kept Paused

Business scenarios: 

At 8:00 AM - Case created in Medium Priority which has 2 hours to respond. Failure Time is 10:00 AM. This works well

At 8:10 AM - Case status updated to "On Hold" and kept the SLA on Paused for 10 mins. This works well

At 8:20 AM - Case status updated to "In Progress" and the SLA is resumed. The Failure Time is updated to 10:10 AM. This works well

At 8:30 AM - Case priority updated to "High Priority". Since the High Priority has 1 hour response time and the case was kept on hold for 10 mins, the Failure Time now I am expecting is 9:10 AM. But I am getting the Failure time as 9:00 AM even though it was on hold for 10 mins on Medium Priority.

Does anyone configured similar SLA (which I think its very common scenario) and tried updating priority to reflect the new failure time after it was in paused condition. Let me know how does this scenario should work, I think the time the SLA was on hold should be added.

Thank you in advance!

    Thanks for the input. I tried setting the SLA Item level to false but it is same as before.

    Hi Preetam,

    You mentioned that you have set 'Pause Configurations' in both SLA KPI and SLA Items level.

    Configure pause conditions in this section(sla item) to override entity-level pause configuration defined in Service Configuration and KPI-level pause configuration.

    Try to set the configuration only at the KPI level and make the item level configuration to false.
