In order to achieve the full potential of the SLA Timer Add-on a few Add-on concepts must be explained.

Image Added

SLA

The SLA is the core object of the add-on.A

For each JIRA project zero to many SLAs can be configured.

Each SLA is paired with a Schedule and must be configured with:

  • A JIRA search (saved filter or jql)

...

  • .
  • A user with browse and update permissions for issues in the search.
  • A SLA Target Time
  • A First Response Target Time
  • An index value, that defines in which order the SLA will be used.
  • A name of the SLA
  • A description of the SLA.

Issues filtered in by the JIRA search will be in scope of the SLA.

Schedule

A Schedule defines working hours for all weekdays, monday to sunday.

A SLA is paired with a Schedule and an issue within scope of a SLA will only increase in SLA Spent Time with the Schedule defined working hours.

A Schedule can be configured to use holidays. If it is a holiday an an issue within scope of a SLA will not increase in SLA Spent Time.

Overdue - Issue Overdue

An issue is considered overdue if the SLA Percent is greather than or equal to 100 %.

On Time - Issue On Time

An issue is considered on time if the SLA Percent is less than 100 %.

SLA Target Time

The Target Time or the SLA Target Time is the maximum time which can be spent on a issue.

...

The SLA Status is determined automatically by the Add-on. It describes the state of an issue in terms of the actually spent time versus the SLA Target Time.

A JIRA Administrator can add new Statuses.

First Response

First Response is triggered by a JIRA user (The user must have Issue Update permission and the add-on specific permission First Response).

The First Response Target Time is configured for each SLA. If configured to zero (0) the SLA is not configured to use First Response. When a First Response is triggered the First Response tile will be set to the current SLA Time Spent.

Overdue - Issue Overdue

An issue is considered overdue if the SLA Percent is greather than or equal to 100 %.

On Time - Issue On Time

An issue is considered on time if the SLA Percent is less than 100 %.
