To give you a better idea, selecting All Cycles for your Time to Resolution SLA would be a logical decision since you'd want to know how many days it took you to solve the issue. The All Cycles method would track the time from the issue’s creation to when it was resolved.

4. Largest Span – The Largest Span method will calculate the elapsed time between the first Open and last Resolved status.

And there you have it! When in doubt, always refer to our work process diagrams, as they can teach you how different methods work in the most concise and efficient way possible.
