Why SLA 2.0?
We are reconsidering the old SLA functionality due to inconvenient setting and not too high performance. We are developing the whole new functionality in addition to the current one as it seems impossible to migrate the settings smoothly. The current SLA functionality will be working and will be supported as usual except for not being developed further. We are not going to deprecate it till the new SLA functionality comes up to the same level.
Main differences:
- settings accumulating in the admin section;
- OLA to be reconsidered not as a separate entity but as the SLA detailing level with partial settings inheritance;
- the ability to start/stop SLA basing on events;
- color schemes related to the remaining time percentage.
The new settings are only applicable to the new type of field and will not affect the old SLA and OLA fields.
The new SLA fields are not displayable at Agile Boards at the time. Upcoming in the future releases.
