Mean Time to Repair reporting?

2007-10-05 Thread Julie L Kanakanui JLKANAKA
Hi,

We are using Remedy HelpDesk 6.03.   Does anyone know if there are OTB 
reports on Mean Time to Repair metric? 

I know of (and use) the Hours to Resolve field so could just do 
calculations with that, but I would be interested to hear if anyone has 
other suggestions to report on this metric.

Thanks,
Julie

Hours to resolve in my opinion is more the total time of outage, and in a
very strict sense, not the time taken to repair.

Time taken to repair in a strict sense is the time a technician starts on a
job and finishes it. If the technician revisits the job at different times,
its the total of all those individual times frames. That statistic would
only be available if you use the Start/Stop clock functionality.

I haven't used HelpDesk 6.03 as I was more involved with custom development
gigs over the past 3 years than working with the out of the box products, so
not sure if they had that functionality in it but the prior versions did
have it.

In any case, the mean time be it mean outage time or mean time to repair,
were never a part of the out of the box bundled reports. You will need to
build those reports and include them within the reporting module of the
application so they are available when the user goes to the reporting
module.
