Setting service level agreements

Service catalog administrators and internal service supplier administrators can configure the Service Level Agreements (SLA) for a service. The SLA section is where you include optional information to capture the terms of service agreed upon by an organization and the service supplier who provides the service. SLAs contain text, documents, and individually assigned metrics that can be tracked and displayed in reports.
