How urgent is it?
Section titled “How urgent is it?”The priority sets the SLA: how soon you’ve promised to attend and to fix. By default:
| Priority | Attend within | Fix within |
|---|---|---|
| P1 Emergency | 2 hours, round the clock | 24 hours |
| P2 High | 4 business hours | 2 working days |
| P3 Normal | 2 working days | 5 working days |
| P4 Planned | 10 working days | no target |
You can change these in Settings → Priorities & SLAs. If you pick a different priority from the one the job type suggests, Sustainable ERP asks why, so there’s a record.
If the site is covered by a maintenance contract, the job picks up the contract’s own targets. See Contract SLAs.
