Field Behaviour and Goal - where you decide whether your SLA behaviour will be status- or event-based, what are your SLA Goal and your Goal
update strategy.
Visibility - where you decide who is permitted to view the agreement and change some additional settings as users are able to hide certain elements by selecting the options as shown below:
Notifications - where you select a notification scheme and a service manager.
