Rotation Settings

Tiers

Each roster must have at least one tier in order to record the rotation information and to add assignees.

Additional tiers are utilised when the primary on-call user does not Acknowledge the issue in a specified time. To add Tiers select 'Add another tier'.

Edit the fields:

• Assignee Order: Search and select the users that will become your roster group. You can drag and drop them once all your users are selected to order the escalation cycle i.e the user at the top of the list will be 1st in the escalation cycle of your roster. 
  
  

• Rotation Frequency and Every: This edits the frequency of when users will rotate through the roster. E.g. Set the Rotation Frequency as daily and the first escalation user in the roster will be on-call for 24 hours.
• Start Date & Start Time: Edit the date and time you want the roster to start. Dates/Times entered here are relative to your JIRA user's configured timezone. See Choosing a Time Zone in the JIRA documentation for more information
• Escalate after: Edit the amount of time before any unacknowledged escalations will be automatically escalated to the next tier
