SLA targets

SLA ticketing that counts only your business hours

SLA ticketing in Kora Reply gives every ticket a first reply target based on its priority, counted in your own business hours and timezone, so the queue shows what is due soon and what is already overdue.

Targets

A first reply target for each priority

Defaults are 1 business hour for urgent, 4 for high, 8 for normal and 24 for low. Admins can change each target to match what your team can keep.

  • Target follows the ticket's priority
  • Edit targets per workspace
  • Met or breached is recorded when you first reply

Business hours

Clocks that stop when you close

Set opening hours per weekday, split shifts and holidays in your workspace timezone. A ticket that arrives on Friday evening is due on Monday, not overnight.

  • Hours per weekday, including split shifts
  • Your timezone, daylight saving handled
  • Holidays skipped

Overdue

See what is about to slip

Tickets show on track, due soon (30 minutes left) or overdue. The Overdue view collects every ticket still waiting for a first reply past its target.
