Whenever you are plugging in a Keyword into Remedy fields that are not the 
Advanced Search bar it always seems to put the \ right after the $ sign.
They are basically the same.

Set your Stop conditions for your Response SLA to the following:

'Status' = Resolved OR 'Status History.In Progress.TIME' != $\NULL$ OR 
'Status' = In Progress OR 'Status History.Resolved.TIME' != $\NULL$

This way when the ticket is Resolved or Closed or Cancele or In Progress it 
stops the clock and determines Measurement status and will stay stopped as long 
as you have a Status history date for Resolved or In Progress.

Subject: incident SLAs

I wanted to ping the list to see what others are doing/thinking regarding SLAs 
and ITSM.
We currently have 2 SLAs per incident: response and resolution. - we'll focus 
on the response SLA for now.

As normal, when a ticket is new, the SLAs are attached and are kicked off when 
the status is Assigned.  The response SLA stops when the ticket is set to In 
Progress. This means that the ticket has been acknowledged. If the ticket is 
re-assigned to another support group, the status changes back to Assigned and 
the response SLA starts calculating time again.
I have been asked to look at once the response SLA is met once, then don't 
restart it if the incident is assigned to another support group. Or as some 
folks put it why have to shoot the duck twice if it's already dead with the 
first shot.

I was thinking of creating a hidden field on the HPD:Help Desk form and having 
a filter populate this field if the status is In progress. AND adding to the 
Terms and Conditions of the response service target: AND 'field' = $NULL$.

I wanted to check w/ the list if this is a good solution or if I am creating 
workflow for something that can be done OOB by a setting change.

Any comments appreciated. Thanks.

Re: ITSM7.5 Incident SLAs

2010-05-21 Thread Mike Buck
That's really helpful Jiri, thank you!

1.  I have gone throught he settings as you suggest, and it wasn't too far a
drift.

o   Reset Goal for Same Request? = Yes (was No)

o   Allow Service Target to Re-Open? = No (was Yes)
2.  I have now created the Groups and associated Service Targets as you
suggest, as they were not defined before.  The manual confirms the Reported
Date+ is used for SLAs as they attach when the incident conditions like
priority change.

3.  The SLA Due Times using assigned groups with different business hours,
are not correct.  Not sure if I have wrong settings or if there is a bug
here.  I can provide more detail on this.

4.  When the priority or assigned group (different business hours) changes,
is it normal to see the previous SLAs getting met (or missed goal) and
remaining visible on the table field?  Is there a way to show only the
latest SVT Title at anyone time

5.  Following on from 4.   When the assigned group changes and business
hours change, the customer would like to see just one SLA present, rather
than one or more Met and the latest In Process - Is this possible?

6.  Also when new SLAs attach when priority changes, Progress is Attached
and not In Process.  This is despite the Start Condition is 'Status' =
New for Resolution, and 'SLA Responded' = No for Respond.  This is
unexpected and a little strange!
Any thoughts on this would be very much appreciated.

Best regards
Mike

 Mike,



 If that is the case, I can only think of checking/trying some of the
 following settings:

 -  In data source Start Time for Request-Based SVTs = Reported
 Date +

 -  on service target

 o   Use Start Time as defined on the Application form – blank

 o   Business Schedules – Use on App Form ticked

 o   Group – Team Response (this you would need to define as a new group
 and it may be this setting that makes the time carry on rather than start
 from beginning again)

 o   Reset Goal for Same Request? = Yes

 o   Allow Service Target to Re-Open? = No

 Mike,



 We are only on SLM 7.1, but we do something very similar here.

 What you seem to be missing is setting on the Data Source called *Reset
 Goal for Same Request When*.

 We have this set to

  'TR.Assigned Group' != $\NULL$ AND 'DB.Assigned Group' != $\NULL$



 This way it resets the target every time the assignee group changes, but
 not on incident submission.

 Hi



 Does anyone know how to configure things so that the SLA re-attaches when
 it's re-assigned to another group?  The new group's business hours (new
 group's Business Entity) should be used in calculating the new SLA Due Date.



 Currently Response and Resolution SLAs get attached to Incidents using the
 Reported Date as the start time, and SLA Due Dates get calculated correclty
 against the group's business hours/hols.  The group's business hours/hols
 are defined in Segments, and associated with a Business Entity with the
 Entity Title matching the Group ID e.g. SGP1234.  SLA/OLA Type Data
 Fields = 'Assigned Group ID' in the Target Data Source for HPD:Help Desk.



 Your help would be very much appreciated.
