Read response and resolution service levels
Understand which deadline you are looking at before deciding how to prioritize work.
- An applicable service-level policy.
Step-by-step walkthrough
- 01
Open the ticket and inspect its first-response, next-response, and resolution indicators where configured. These clocks measure different parts of the workflow.
- 02
Read the applicable policy, including its coverage and time settings, before interpreting a deadline. Use the workspace’s configured timezone consistently in reviews.
- 03
When a warning or breach appears, check the latest customer message, actual status, ownership, and any pause state before making a change.
- 04
Respond or resolve based on the work needed. Do not send an empty or irrelevant message just to make a response indicator change.
- 05
Use Analytics or a saved report for a wider review. A single ticket’s state is not a full explanation of team performance.
