Business value

Customers can define various travel policies across the company while technicians can define their traveling rules and limits outside of working hours based on their preferences. This ensures all of the data necessary to create accurate schedules is available in the system.

Feature details

Sometimes technicians start their day at the site of the first assigned job instead of their home or office address. The goal of this feature is to allow resource travel outside of working hours to accommodate various scenarios for starting and ending points in the trip.

Technicians' travel time availability can be scheduled independently of working hours so that jobs that require extra travel outside of working hours can be assigned to those technicians and still be captured and accounted for in the schedule.

Note

This feature is available in Unified Interface only.
