Working Schedule for Service desk

[nsudarshan]

Hi,
We are developing an Service desk ticketing software tool internally.
The issue that im stuck in formulating the working hours that im supposed to provide the information to Development team who are building this software.

Situation at present
1. Our work timings is 9.00 am to 8.00 PM - Monday through Friday
2.Saturdays and Holidays- 10.30 am to 6.30 PM.


Now I need to calculate SLA in such a way that :
1. Any tickets that is reported after 7.00 PM should be considered for Next day and the SLA should start from Next Business day only.
2. Skeletal staffing will be provided during Saturdays and holidays.

I need a method of calculating the SLA meter to be triggered as per above Specs.
Please help me

This web site is not a tool development support website

Give your requirements to the your own developers. Hopefully some one on the development staff can

1 - write an algorithm that will determine that
2 - hopefully take into consideration if your hours change

Good luck

I would specify it in a decision table.

More to the point, if you are struggling with the basic specification, how confident can you be that your organization has the capability to develop and maintain this kind of tool to the quality required.
