Calculation of Reaction Points

Formula: Creation Date + SL Reaction Time = Reaction Point

  • Incidents 1-4: Monday, 1/5/2009, 12:00 AM + 1 hour = Monday, 1/5/2009, 1:00 AM

Calculation of Solution Points

Formula: Creation Date + SL Solution Time = Solution Point

  • Incident 1: Monday, 1/5/2009, 12:00 AM + 1 day = Tuesday, 1/6/2009, 12:00 AM
  • Incident 2: Monday, 1/5/2009, 12:00 AM + 3 days = Thursday, 1/8/2009, 12:00 AM
  • Incident 3: Monday, 1/5/2009, 12:00 AM + 5 days = Saturday, 1/10/2009, 12:00 AM
  • Incident 4: Monday, 1/5/2009, 12:00 AM + 10 days = Thursday, 1/15/2009, 12:00 AM

This example assumes that the working times are set to 24/7 and no holidays are considered.
