Which configuration in the SLA Definition controls whether more than one SLA can attach to the same case?
A CSM administrator needs to ensure that when a customer service case is reopened after being resolved, the resolution SLA is re-evaluated and the timer continues from where it left off, rather than resetting. Which TWO configuration settings should the administrator verify or adjust? (Choose two.)
A CSM implementation uses SLA Definitions with business schedules to calculate breach times. A customer service manager notices that an SLA for a case created on Friday at 5:00 PM breached on Monday at 9:00 AM, even though the business schedule is 8x5 (8 hours per day, 5 days a week, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM).

During a CSM implementation, an engineer writes a custom script to manually insert a Task SLA record. What core engine feature might be bypassed or corrupted if Task SLAs are created manually instead of letting the SLA engine handle them?
A CSM organization requires an SLA report that displays the percentage of cases resolved within the SLA per agent, grouped by month. Which reporting feature in ServiceNow is best suited to display this aggregated compliance percentage directly?
