Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service includes:
Informative work orders
A work order informs about the nature of the work that needs to be done, so resources and activities can be coordinated accordingly. It contains information such as status, estimated completion time, priority level and customer details. Additionally, a work order can be allocated to an incident type, like an installation or a repair job. Categorized like this, technicians can access further materials like knowledge articles.
Intuitive resource management
The Schedule Board and the corresponding map enable dispatchers to schedule resources in the most logical way. All current jobs, their status as well as the field service agents’ timetables are displayed. Dispatchers can simply assign jobs by dragging a pin from the map and dropping it on a resource’s timetable. Unforeseen absences of employees can easily be reassigned to available resources, too.
Automated scheduling
Urgent tasks are scheduled and assigned to the best and most available resource automatically. For example, if the connected IoT sensors of an asset on customer site trigger an alert, the system generates a new work order. This, in turn, is assigned to a free employee with the needed qualifications. Furthermore, Dynamics 365 Field Service includes a set of automated capabilities to optimize resource scheduling.
Asset tracking
Field service work often involves the installation or repair of assets on customer site. Dynamics 365 Field Service lets you record any asset’s history, e.g., when was it installed, when repaired. You can also see where exactly an item is in place, meaning the level or room number of the building in addition to its address. Inventory stored in warehouses or cars can also be tracked to make sure stock is reordered timely and distributed to the service cars as needed.
Simplified invoicing
For every work order all available details are neatly recorded. Project managers can check which products were used, how many hours of work and which travel expenses are charged. When a job is finished, and the customer is satisfied, its status can be changed to trigger the creation of an invoice.
Mobile App
The Dynamics 365 Field Service Mobile App supports technicians before, during and after their jobs. Details about the customer, the asset in question and the task help them to prepare. During the job the technician can consult check lists and 3D-models or add images, videos or text to a timeline to document their doings. After completion, customers can sign digitally, and job reports can be generated. It is even possible to note in the app, if a competitor was on the job site. The mobile app is available online and offline.

Together with other Dynamics 365 technologies, we implemented it successfully at the professional services company Interflex – and at more organizations worldwide since.
Whether small, medium or large organizations – we always provide the best possible working environment to our customers. That is why we implement and customize Dynamics 365 solutions as well as develop our own add-ons to extend Dynamics 365 with even more useful features.
