How to assign SLA to customers

[Marco_Artioli]

I would assign SLA to customers. Either SLA and customers have been created.

It seems I can't see any action to do that in customer page.

Is customer page the correct one to do this action?

@Marco_Artioli -

SLA control and setup are for your project teams and it is not for customers.  Therefore, you cannot assign SLA to customers.

By definition of SLA -  so teams can track how well they're meeting the level of service expected by their customers.

I am sure that you already know how to setup/config SLAs, just in case if you need further reference - here is the documentation link - https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/create-service-level-agreements-slas/

Hello @Marco_Artioli ,

I guess you want to define SLAs based on who the customer of a given ticket is.

In that case, first, the customer has to be represented on your issues in some way. For example, you can create a Select List field named "Customer", put all possible customer names as options for this field, add this field to your tickets, and make sure all tickets have a value for this field.

After that, you can set multiple goals for your SLA metrics. For example, you create a Response Time metric and set goals like below:

If customer=A then Goal = 4 hr
If customer=B then Goal = 8 hr
If customer=C then Goal = No Goal

Hope this helps.

Hi @Marco_Artioli,

Try also our Great Gadgets app. It is free for up-to 10 users and offers many gadgets that allows you to track the SLA. 

For your need, you could use the Control Chart gadget for tracking the SLA of the issues from a specific customer. The gadget will calculate and display the average SLA for that customer and you can set a maxim Threshold (representing the customer SLA). Once you set the threshold, the issues that breached the SLA will appear in chart in red-color.

This way you can have a gadget for each customer, each customer with its own SLA (threshold).

The gadget offers also a Data tab with nice report showing the SLA for each issue as well as the average SLA. 

This app offers many other gadgets for tracking projects in Jira Service Management. You could build tracking dashboard for each customer. 

See this article from our blog for how to do it: An effective dashboard for Service Desk and Customer Support teams in Jira Service Management.
