Enable entities for service-level agreements

You can enable entities for service-level agreements (SLAs) either through the Power Apps portal or your Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (on-premises) organization.

Important

Only enhanced SLAs can be created for other entities. A standard SLA can be created only for the Case entity.

Prerequisites

Make sure that you have the System Administrator or System Customizer security role or equivalent permissions.

Entities (record types) that support SLAs

You can create enhanced SLAs for entities that are enabled for an SLA. A system administrator or customizer can enable SLAs for the following entities:

  • Account

  • Contact

  • Order

  • Invoice

  • Quote

  • Opportunity

  • Lead

  • Activity entities such as Email, PhoneCall, and Appointment—but not RecurringAppointment or its instances.

    Note

    SLAs can also be enabled for custom entities and custom activities. More information: Enable custom entities for service-level agreements
