    About this task

    The Customer Service Management application uses service level agreements with customer service cases. An SLA can be attached to a service contract, to a company, and to a product and can be configured to start, pause, and stop based on any customer service case attributes.

    An SLA is automatically associated to a case when the case is created or updated based on the conditions that have been set up in the SLA definition. The specific record that gets attached to a case is the Task SLA record, which tracks the SLAs for that particular case. The Task SLA table [task_sla] stores Task SLA records.
