Set response expectations for your team

Use business hours and reports while formal SLA automation is unavailable.

Reviewed September 23, 2026

Current availability

The app does not currently provide a configurable SLA policy builder, per-priority SLA countdowns or automatic breach actions. Do not rely on a countdown or escalation policy described in an older guide.

Set clear expectations

Configure your business-hours schedule and tell customers when the team is available. Assign incoming requests to a responsible agent or department and record promised callback times in the conversation.

Review response times

Use https://app.message.com/reports/tickets/response-times and the relevant chat or agent reports to review service. These reports measure activity; they do not enforce a contractual deadline.

Keep going
