Hi @inspiritsupport

unfortunately I cannot present a turnkey solution but remembering two other threads in community they might give you some idea where to start from.

In the first an user determined if the request was raised on a specific day (here Fri, Sat, Sun) but that is flexible - according to the day he acts differently upon the requests.
From what you told you would need to include Mon- Fri.

* Automation based on day of week

The next part is to react on the hour the request is made:

* Assigning round robin according to the hour of the day
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Automation-questions/Assigning-round-robin-according-to-the-hour-of-the-day/qaq-p/1651142

Surely there is some option for elaborate if/else functions to work with.
What currently is not addressed is your particular circumstance the office hour begins 08.30 and ends 17.30 (the example rounds to the full hour) - maybe this would especially need some more investigation.

Hope this helps to get at least started by re-using parts of the rule.

Daniel

Have you had a look at the documentation for automation time functions? smart-values-date-and-time-functions . The information presented there should allow you to assess when the issue was created against your define business hours.
