You can configure automations according to your business hours. Refer to NinjaOne Ticketing: Automation Triggers and Templates to learn more.

Holidays

You can define which days are public holidays, which you can exclude from service level agreement (SLA) tracking. Refer to NinjaOne Ticketing: Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to learn more about SLAs in NinjaOne Ticketing.

You will create groups of holidays, and these groups can contain one or multiple holidays. When you create SLAs for ticketing, you will select the group that excludes the holidays specific to that agreement. For example, you may have SLAs for customers in different countries, who observe holidays on different dates.

To create a holiday, perform the following steps: 

  1. Click Add group.
  2. In the Add group dialog, provide a unique identifier for the Name field.
  3. Click Add holiday.
  4. Provide the name and date for the holiday. Click Add.
  5. Click Add again to close the Add group dialog.
