Hi there! I have followed these steps, but the report continues to generate tickets that were answered, for example, 500 minutes later. This happens when the customer reaches out outside of our business hours and doesn't receive a first-time reply until the next day. Just to clarify, our business hours are from 7 am to 10 pm, 7 days a week. Can you please guide me through the process of creating a custom report? Thank you!

Aloha! Is the time range for this formula expressly limited to between 1 and 24 business hours? Can this be used to report on tickets solved within 48 business hours? Mahalo!

I submitted the above question as a request, and received confirmation that the time range can be any number, and is not limited to a range of 1 - 24.
