Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Search for | Example | Results |
---|---|---|
A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Search for | Operator | Example |
---|---|---|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
Either word in a topic |
|
|
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

- In the Title field, type a descriptive name for the SLA.
- In the Effective from field, choose a date in the calendar options for the SLA start date.

- In the Next Review Date field, choose a date for the first review of the SLA.
- In the Service review Frequency field, choose the time period for the review.
- Add an optional Description for the new SLA.
- Click Save. The agreement is now in the "Draft" phase and an Agreement ID number added to the record.
- Click the Process Targets or Service Targets tabs. You can add, edit, or remove Service Level Targets on these tabs.
- The following steps are optional:
- Click the Agreed By tab, and specify the appropriate signatories to the agreement.

After you create a new SLA, ensure that you link the new SLA to a department, company, or contacts record.
