Hello!

 

I have a question about the option: Waiting of customer and Waiting for a third party, when selecting them, is it also considered within the SLA time?, Since the response time varies, which can be 1 month, 2 months, etc. . Or is this period of elapsed time simply not taken into account?

 

Thanks greetings!

Good day, @Karina Duran :) 

 

Please navigate to Admin → Ticket fields → Status. You would see an SLA timer toggle that you can enable or disable. If the toggle is off for a particular status, say, Pending in this case, the SLA timer would not run when the status of the ticket is set to Pending.

 

It’s the vice-versa when the timer is ON. 

 

So, the time when SLA is OFF would not be counted and the timer starts only when the customer resonds back. I am adding a link to a solution article hoping it would be helpful for you to an in-depth understanding on how status works in Freshdesk -  - https://support.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/37600-understanding-ticket-statuses

 

Also, please refer to this forum discussion to get an idea of how the chronology would work.

 

Feel free to write to support@freshdesk.com, if you have further queries on the same and our support team would be glad to help you :)
