Coverage Basis, Incident Priority Code

The coverage basis is used to define the hours that are considered when using the days/hours until value when setting warning, due, and follow-up dates on Incidents.

Valid options are:

  • All Hours: All 24 hours of all days are included as coverage time.
  • Business Hours: Only the time ranges for each day of the week defined on the Other tab of the Service Parameters form are included as coverage time.
  • Contract Coverage Hours: Only the time ranges specified on a valid customer contract are included as coverage time.
Note: If Contract Coverage Hours is selected but no contract is found for the customer/unit, then business hours will be used.
