Parameter Name	SLA_ENABLE_SUPPRESSION_ON_PENDING_ACTIONS
Parameter Description	When the parameter value is set to Yes, the SLA Monitor performs the following actions: Applies SLA targets to the matching tickets. Monitors the compliance of the tickets. Determines the compliance status of the tickets. Displays information on SLA tabs for the tickets. Note: With a parameter value of Yes, the proactive warnings notification and escalation actions that are associated with the SLA target thresholds are not executed. The Activity tab information for the ticket also does not create activity records because communication or escalation actions are not executed. The parameter value must be set to No to execute the automatic warning or alert communications and assignment actions that are based on the escalation when thresholds are crossed.

SLA_PROCESS_HIGHEST_ACTIONABLE_THRESHOLD_RULES

This parameter manages SLA target based automatic notification and escalation action.

Title	Description
ID	831
Parameter Name	SLA_PROCESS_HIGHEST_ACTIONABLE_THRESHOLD_RULES
Parameter Description	The default value is set to Yes that permits processing of only the highest (based on Sort Order value) actionable threshold rule and skips thresholds with lower Sort Order values. When the value is set to No, all actions that are based on violated thresholds are executed. This applies during the SLA compliance monitoring process, when a new SLA Target becomes applicable to a ticket and the elapsed time crossed the Threshold values of the new Target. For example, a Ticket is updated such that a new Target becomes applicable. At the time of the SLA monitoring review, two Thresholds with Sort Orders 1 and 2 were crossed. In that case, only the actions for the Threshold with sort order 2 executes.
Default value	Yes
Valid value	Yes/No
Impact Area	The SLA Target based automatic Notification and Escalation actions.
