Before you begin
An agreed service indicator, objective, measurement window, and policy owner.
How to use it
The worked calculations show how the SLO and eligible population determine the allowance. Use the matching fields to keep that definition and the agreed release response in the same service record.
Scope
Use the units and denominator appropriate to your service; a request budget is not a downtime allowance.
