Dashboard & Reports

Custom Time-Series Grouping for Metrics

You can now group time-based data in custom dashboards for a clearer view of performance metrics such as First Response Time or Resolution Time.

Key features:

  • Define custom time ranges to analyze how many tickets or updates fall within each range (e.g., 0–15 mins, 15–30 mins, 1–2 hrs, 4–8 hrs).
  • Create standard series (e.g., 0–15m, 15–30m, 1–2h) or cumulative series (e.g., 0–15m, 0–30m, 0–1h).
  • Each time range must be unique and customizable to fit your reporting needs.

This feature gives you full flexibility to analyze response and resolution trends in a way that best matches your workflow.

Unified SLA Achieved/Breached Widget

You can now create a single widget to easily track how many tickets have achieved SLA, breached SLA, or had no SLA applied, based on the ticket creation date.

Key features:

  • Provides a consolidated SLA status for each ticket up to the current time.
  • Tickets that breached SLA even once are counted as breached.

New grouping option: Tags

You can now group tickets by the Tags field in the ticket module within custom dashboards. This enhancement helps you analyze ticket distribution and tag-based trends, making it easier to identify which tags are most frequently associated with your tickets.

Key Details:

  • Since tags are multi-select, a ticket with multiple tags (e.g., three tags) will appear once under each tag in the grouping level.
  • Ticket counts reflect occurrences per tag, not distinct ticket totals.

Enhanced Time-Based Filters

Filtering time-based fields in advanced filters is now more flexible and user-friendly. Instead of entering all values in minutes, you can now specify both a number and a time unit (minutes or hours).

For example, to filter “2 hours,” you previously had to enter 120. Now, you can simply enter 2 hours or 2 minutes without manual conversion.

This enhancement makes it easier to:

  • Apply filters quickly without manual conversions.
  • Set clearer and more readable filter conditions.
  • Reduce input errors and save time.
