Delayed Service-Level Agreement processing
When a Case reaches an Assignment, the system creates an Assignment. However, in some Cases, a user cannot start work on the Assignment immediately. In these Cases, it is beneficial to delay processing a Service-Level Agreement (SLA) to account for Assignments that are not immediately ready for users.
For example, a stock brokerage company establishes a deadline of two hours to price assets in customer accounts. Associates cannot begin pricing assets until after the stock market closes for the day at 4:30 P.M. Even if the Case reaches the Assignment earlier in the day, the Assignment is not ready until 4:30 P.M. The deadline is 6:30 P.M.
