{Do you know} Create work orders in Outook using AI Dynamics 365 Field Service

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share new feature in Dynamics 365 Field Service, you can schedule work order from Outlook instead of Scheduled Board.

Let’s get’s started.

Normally work orders can be scheduled from Scheduled Board on Dynamics 365 Field Service and it is lengthy process to schedule a work order.

Now with AI you can create work orders from Outlook itself.

How do you do that ?

Field Technicians and managers can create, view and manage work orders within Microsoft 365 applications, including Microsoft Outlook by harnessing the power of generative AI to deliver accelerated work order creation.

This new feature can allow work order creation with Copilot in Outlook. The AI – based copilot can assist with extracting relevant details from emails and filling in data to the work order form based on the text in the email thread.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

Resource Scheduling using Single Resource Optimization considers new requirements in Dynamics 365 Field Service

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to show what are the benefits of Single Resource Optimization in Dynamics 365 Field Service Scheduling.

Let’s get’s started.

Sometimes disruptions and changes in a resource schedule can cause that schedule to become unbalanced.

Single resource optimization allows a dispatcher to automatically re-optimize the resource’s schedule.

This is the new feature looks to fill in gaps in a resource’s schedule using the organization’s optimization goals.

New feature details:

Disruptions or exceptions during the day that affects a resource’s schedule are fairly common:

1. A technician finishes a booking earlier then estimated, and now has idle before the next booking.

2. A technician is stuck in traffic and can’t make it to the next booking on time.

3. A customer cancels an appointment at the last minute, and now there’s gap in the resource’s schedule.

Dispatchers need an efficient way to fix such disruptions. This include re-optimizing exisiting bookings to make sure there’s no overlaps, or to schedule new work to cover idle time, or to optimize travel time.

This feature expands on our capabilities to optimize the schedule for a specific resource, allowing single resource optimization to pull in additional requirements to fill gaps in the technicians schedules, create a more optimized route, or address high priority requirements.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

Resource Scheduling Optimization Multi-day scheduling in Dynamics 365 Field Service

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to show the Multi-day scheduling using Resource Scheduling Optimization Dynamics 365 Field Service.

Let’s get’s started.

This new feature enables scheduling efficiencies and accuracies by optimizing job requirements that span multiple days automatically.

A 40 hour work order across an entire work week where the same field technician is expected to perform more detailed work at the same location each day.

So a service requirement can be scheduled across multiple days and weeks.

Dispatchers can schedule multi-day work manually or by using the schedule assistant.

The resource scheduling optimization add-in for Dynamics 365 Field Service now supports multi-day requirements optimization too.

The system assigns requirements that span multiple days to a resource based on the breakdown of the underlying requirements details.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.
