Defining and Managing User Schedules
User Schedules allow Admins to define work schedules in Mobileforce FSM that mirror the existing schedules for the technicians or other field service employees in your organization.
A company that dispatches EMTs on a 24-hour a day schedule, would create a new schedule for each shift.
Where as an IT staffing company may only create two user schedules, one for scheduled weekday work and one for emergency weekend work.
Once Admins have defined the schedules, they can assign them to any Mobileforce User profile. For more information, see Creating and Managing Mobileforce Users
