    Hi, Ravi

    You can follow the next steps to create the entity to be shown in the Schedule Board.

    1. First of all, there are some fields which is necessary for the entity.

    Latitude (Floating Point, 5 decimal, -180/180)

    Longitude (Floating Point, 5 decimal, -180/180)

    Territory (Lookup - Territory)

    1. Open the Resource Scheduling app and go Settings > Administration > Enable Resource Scheduling for Entities.

    1. After the steps above have been completed, there will be a Book button in the form of the entity.

    Hi Ravi

    if I understood correctly, you want to use schedule board for custom entity and you want the requirements for that entity to appear? Take a look at this documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/common-scheduler/schedule-anything-with-universal-resource-scheduling

    There are links in here on how to configure the schedule board when extending it to other entities.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/field-service/schedule-new-entity

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Adnan
