Lesson 2 of 4

Apply deadline boundaries

Distinguish invalid timing, breached deadlines and awaiting replies.

Do the work

  1. Each priority has a supplied limit in the policies table.
  2. A reply earlier than opening is invalid_time and takes precedence.
  3. Use observed reply minus opening, or as-of minus opening for unanswered tickets. Equality meets the limit.

See the method

30 elapsed minutes against a 30-minute limit meets the policy.

Read every demonstration step
  1. 30 elapsed minutes against a 30-minute limit meets the policy.
  2. 31 elapsed minutes breaches it.
  3. A still-unanswered ticket can be awaiting until its limit is exceeded.

These are original practice policies; real contracts may use different clocks, calendars and pause rules.
