Alerts before and after a missed deadline
Kauthar watches your tickets every minute and alerts you a quarter of an hour before a deadline and the moment it is missed.
Overview#
The deadline monitor runs automatically every minute. 15 minutes before a first-reply or resolution deadline it sends Ticket #… will miss its deadline in 15 min to the assigned agent (or to the whole team if the ticket is unassigned). When the deadline passes, it marks the ticket overdue, records it in the ticket history and sends Ticket #… missed its first-response deadline or …missed its resolution deadline. Overdue tickets appear in the Overdue view and on the dashboard.
