  • Description:

    The read-only value for the unique name of the entitlement process or the entitlement process version. If entitlement versioning is enabled, this value is automatically generated for each version of an entitlement process in this form: process name+_v + x, where x is the version number (for example, “gold_support_v2”).

    If entitlement versioning isn’t enabled, this value is the same as Name.

  • Type: picklist

  • Properties: Filter, Group, Restricted picklist, Sort

  • Introduced: API version 37.0

  • Description:

    The type of records that the entitlement process can run on. Its values are:

    • Case
    • Work Order

    An entitlement process runs only on records that match its type. For example, a Case entitlement process that’s applied to an entitlement runs only on cases associated with the entitlement, not on work orders. As a best practice, therefore, manage customers’ work orders and cases on separate entitlements.

    The field label in the user interface is Entitlement Process Type.
