Hi there, here's how we've done it: 1. Define the following at /index.pl?Action=AdminGeneralCatalog ITSM::Core::Criticality ITSM::Core::Impact ITSM::Service::Type ITSM::SLA::Type 2. Define your Priority levels at /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminPriority 3. Define your service tree at /index.pl?Action=AdminService keeping in mind that every service has a criticality (also called urgency) associated to it 4. Define your SLAs at /index.pl?Action=AdminSLA and associate them to the services you just created 5. Define how Priority will be automatically set when choosing a Service and an Impact when creating the ticket. That's done at /otrs/index.pl?Action=AdminITSMCIPAllocate 6. Define which users have access to which services at /index.pl?Action=AdminCustomerUserService keeping in mind that if you want offer the same services to plenty of users you'd better define in this same screen your default services 7. When creating a new ticket choose the Customer and the available Services (and SLAs) for him will show up. Go a little down and choose and Impact, the Priority will be automatically showed based on the definition set on #5 8. If you want to customize some of this behavior, use ACLs http://doc.otrs.org/2.4/en/html/c2064.html Greetings, Leonardo Certuche 301 284 6250 460 0727 ext 5559 leonardo.certuche AT itilibre.com www.itilibre.com Cra 31 # 54-10 TECNOSOFT Medellín, Colombia On Thu, May 14, 2009 at 11:55 PM, Katta, Lokesh Katta Subramanyam < lokesh.ks@cgi.com> wrote:

Hi Jeffery,

Thanks for the answer.

There is no much documentation on setting up the service, SLA, and customizing them.

Moreover, we are planning to use the OTRS as a helpdesk, trouble ticket system internally. So we would not want the endusers to select the service and SLA, instead only the ticket priority. Please let me know if I can use the service and sla that can be set at the ticket/customer level in this scenario. OR is it possible to customize for our requirement?

If there are any links to documentation regarding the service and sla. Please point us to those links.

Your help is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

priority is based on the critical and impact. and critical is setting with services.

so, the have no SLA based priority, there only have services based priority.

Hi,

Is it possible to set SLA’s based on priority? As I can see from the documentations we can set it at the Queue level like first response time, update time and solution time.

But in our scenario, like for a particular category/queue the SLA will be different based on priority.

For eg. For Desktop Movement, if priority is critical then solution time is 1 day and if the priority is normal solution time is 1 week.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance
