Color Schemes (SLA 3.0)

Overview

To improve visibility, HelpDesk lets you color-code SLA fields based on remaining time or specific issue conditions. For example:

  • Incidents: Yellow when 50% of SLA remains; orange when only 15% remains.

  • Feature requests: Green until SLA is breached.

This page explains how to create and manage your color schemes.

In Use parameter indicates whether this color scheme is currently selected by any SLA.

Default Color Scheme

To get you started, HelpDesk comes with a default Standard color scheme with the red color for breached SLAs and green – for others. You can change the default scheme if required.

Creating a Color Scheme

  1. Click Add Scheme – a modal dialog will appear.

  2. In the modal dialog you can set up the scheme. It consists of color rules with two rules added by default for a new entry – for breached and not breached SLA. Here you can change the color of a rule or add more rules in between.

  3. Once you’ve finished adding entries, click Save—and you’re all set.

If you modify a color scheme that’s in use it will be applied to all associated issues. The color schemes in use cannot be deleted.
