# Ticket SLAs

SLAs can be as short as 15 minutes or as long as 10 working days (two weeks). Time spent outside of workspace-level [working hours](/account-administration/working-hours.md) will not count against your SLAs, nor will time spent in the `On Hold` status.

Once an SLA has been breached, Wrangle will at-mention your inbox agents and inbox admins in the ticket thread.&#x20;

### Use Automations to ensure SLA accuracy

Sometimes agents may forget to place a ticket On Hold or update the status of a ticket.  With the [Waiting for Reply automation](/tickets/setting-up-your-inbox/ticket-lifecycle/ticket-statuses.md#waiting-for-reply-automation), a ticket's status will automatically be updated to "Waiting for Reply" every time the assigned agent posts a message in the ticket thread, and will automatically go back to "In Progress" when the requester replies. &#x20;

### Who receives SLA pings?

By default, both **Agents** and **Inbox Admins** in an inbox receive SLA reminder notifications when tickets are late.

* If a ticket is **assigned**, only the assigned agent(s) receive pings.
* If a ticket is **unassigned**, Wrangle pings all Agents and Admins in the inbox (by default).

### Excluding admins from SLA reminders

A toggle in Inbox Settings → Ticket SLAs controls this:

**"Include inbox admins in SLA reminders"**

* **On (default):** Both Agents and Admins receive SLA pings for unassigned late tickets.
* **Off:** Only Agents receive SLA pings. Inbox Admins are excluded from SLA notifications entirely.

**What about account admins?** Account (workspace-level) admins have access to all non-confidential inboxes but are not inbox members. Because they are not added as inbox members, they never receive SLA pings — regardless of inbox SLA settings.
