Managing territories and agents from Territory Planning console
Use the Territory Planning Console to assign work orders or work order tasks to agents or crews in the territories that best match their location based on conditions that you set.
Territory Planning Console
The territory map in the Territory Planning Console provides a visual representation of a territory so you can easily see the location of the agents and crews assigned to the territory and also assign the work order tasks.
The personas with the role sn_fsm_tp.fsm_territory_read will only have the view access to Territory Planning console.
Note: To identify the best matched territory for a work order task, you must enable the Field_Service_Territories territory model. For more information, see Enable the Field Service territory model.
