The side panel displays the overall status percentage and remaining error budget for each of the SLO's targets, as well as status bars (monitor-based SLOs) or bar graphs (metric-based SLOs) of the SLI's history. If you created a grouped monitor-based SLO using one [multi alert monitor][6] or a grouped metric-based SLO using the [`sum by` clause][7], the status percentage and remaining error budget for each individual group is displayed in addition to the overall status percentage and remaining error budget.

- A yellow icon indicating an elevated burn rate between 1 and 6 in the past 2 hours.

A visual chart accompanies each indicator to show where the burn rate falls relative to the elevated and critical thresholds, allowing quick assessment of the severity.

SLOs can be filtered by burn rate status: Critical, Elevated, and Healthy. For SLOs with a service tag, each burn rate indicator includes a direct link to the related service page for further investigation.

You have the option to create one-time corrections for ad hoc adjustments, or recurring corrections for predictable adjustments that occur on a regular cadence. One-time corrections require a start and end time, while recurring corrections require a start time, duration, and interval.
