Two bookings at the same time?

Posted on by 100

Hi together, 

do someone knows if it's possible to book two appointments like Work Orders, at the same time for one technician/resource? 

This questions relates to the Schedule Board in Field Service and also in RSO. 

I hope someone can help me. 

Regards,

Marvin

    Not aware of such a setting, but easy to configure. Plus I assume you only want this for certain bookings, so a programmatic approach should be best anyway.

    This helped me a lot!

    Thank you.

    Yes there is a case where the technician is in the car, driving to the appointment (already in the booking time), but simultaneously he can take care of the hotline.

    Is there a way to allow overlapping in general and not only for single bookings?

    When you setup work hours for a resource, you can specify a capacity, in your case 2. This allows the resource to receive 2 bookings at the same time (which only makes sense for location agnostic). You can also set "allow overlap" on single bookings.
