Start Service Level Agreements PracticeAn implementation specialist needs to configure an SLA definition in CSM that applies specifically to Case records where the Priority is Critical and the Account is VIP. Which table should the specialist select as the base table for this SLA definition?
Explanation: The Task SLA definition uses the Task table or its extended tables. Since Case extends Task, the Task table is the correct base table, and conditions are used to filter by Priority and Account.
A CSM project requires an SLA to pause whenever a Case is placed in the 'Awaiting Vendor' state. Where must this pause condition be configured so that the Task SLA engine recognizes it?
Explanation: Pause conditions are configured directly within the SLA Definition record using the Pause condition builder.
When setting up Service Level Agreements for CSM, which type of SLA measures the time taken to assign a case to an agent or group?
Explanation: Response SLAs track the time from creation to first response or assignment, whereas Resolution SLAs track total time to close.
An organization wants to trigger a notification to the CSM manager immediately when a Case SLA reaches 75% of its allotted time without being met. Which feature of the SLA engine should be utilized?
Explanation: SLA percentages and thresholds are managed via SLA Percentage Timer or SLA workflow milestones, specifically configured using SLA plugin features like SLA Workflows or breach thresholds.
A CSM case has multiple SLAs attached: Resolution SLA and Response SLA. The Response SLA has breached, but the Case is subsequently resolved within the Resolution SLA timeframe. How does the base system Task SLA engine update the overall Case priority color or indicator?
Explanation: The system evaluates active SLAs. If any attached SLA breaches, the task SLA indicator generally reflects the worst state (Breached).
