The standard key field ‘totalTime’ always returns the SR# and not the Total Activities time (sum of the time in SR’s activities). Please fix/advise.

Hi @FelixTheCat,

this is actually an open bug that we have - 15125.

I do not have an estimation as to when it will be fixed but we are aware of it.

Thanks @Sela Weinrob. Do you have any workaround for it? I tried to output activities to manually get the ‘Total Activity Time’ but it is not working also. Filter I used is field=id,activities but only id is being returned. Without any field filters, activities is being returned.

Thanks @Sela Weinrob. Do you have any workaround for it? I tried to output activities to manually get the ‘Total Activity Time’ but it is not working also. Filter I used is field=id,activities but only id is being returned. Without any field filters, activities is being returned.

 

@FelixTheCat unfortunately the only thing that I can think of is exporting it to a csv file from the Service Desk → Activities page after filtering to a specific ID and then using the “AutoSum” feature of Excel to get the results.

I would have suggested to use our reports module but we also have a bug there with the activities time so you can’t really count on it currently.

Hopefully both will be fixed soon.
