Service-level agreement
Service-level agreement or SLA defines the agreement between the service provider and end user in terms of aspects of the service provided, such as its scope, quality, or turn-around time.
In the context of support service, an SLA will define different response times for different types of support requests. For example, severity 1 requests will have a response time of 1 hour, and severity 2 requests will have a response time of 4 hours.
JIRA Service Desk lets you define SLA requirements based on response time. You can set up the rules on how response time will be measured, and goals for each rule.
