Creating an SLA policy
SLA policies are created and edited under Admin → SLA by an agent with the admin_settings manage permission.
Create a policy
- Go to Admin → SLA to see the list of existing policies.
- Click New to open the policy form (
/admin/sla/new). - Enter a name (required) and an optional description.
- Tick Default if this policy should apply when no other is chosen. Doing so clears the default flag on any other policy.
- Set the business hours options (see below).
- Enter the response and resolution targets for each priority.
- Save. New policies are created active.
Default target values
If you leave a priority field blank, SummitPSA pre-fills sensible defaults (in minutes):
| Priority | Response | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| Critical | 30 | 240 |
| High | 60 | 480 |
| Medium | 240 | 1440 |
| Low | 480 | 2880 |
Editing
Open any policy from the list and choose Edit to change its name, description, default flag, business hours, or targets. The built-in No SLA system policy is read-only and cannot be edited.
Every create and edit action is recorded in the audit log against your agent account.
