Request Tracker (RT) from Jesse Vincent (Best Practical LLC) and contributors is a solid Trouble Ticket mangement system. After a time you'll want to start to measure your performance on resolving issues: thats what Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are all about.

RT is flexible enough that you can do this any way you want; here I am documenting what I have tried.

  1. Define your SLAs
  2. Create your Custom Field(s)
  3. Tell RT to set your ticket Due dates based upon your SLAs and Custom Fields
  4. Measure which tickets are resolved within their Due times
