Measuring how long a case sits blocked or becomes unblocked because of actions by different actors is what Case Actor Duration captures. In the Action Status app, this metric definition is designed to attribute the time a case remains in a blocked state to the actor whose action caused that block and to the time it remains blocked until it is cleared by the same or a different actor. It records these intervals as separate durations per actor, so you can see who contributed to delays and for how long. For example, if a case is blocked by a stakeholder for 2 hours and then unblocked, that 2 hours is counted under that stakeholder’s duration; if later another actor blocks it for 1 hour, that’s added to their duration, and so on. This per-actor tracking helps identify bottlenecks and accountability, supporting better workload management and SLA insights. The options suggesting falsehood, uncertainty, or inapplicability don’t fit because the metric is indeed defined to monitor these per-actor blocking durations.
