Use custom fields to store SLA values and display the fields in the Issue Navigator and the likes.

The use of custom fields are optionally.

You can add them manually or you can have the add-on add them to JIRA.

The custom fields can not be edited manually. There are updated by the Add-on. So no need to add them to a screen.

Use Custom Fields in the Issue Navigator and searches. Note that an Issue must be index in order to work with searches. See Performance Tuning

Custom Fields can be administered (added, removed, edited, searches) at the JIRA configuration pages like any other custom field.

On how to do this, refer the JIRA documentation.

You can also have the Add On to add the Custom Fields.

A Custom Field must be enabled for the Add On in order to be updated.
