Set Up Concurrent Scheduling for Intelligent Appointment Management
With concurrent scheduling, schedulers can book multiple customer appointments in the
same time slot. Concurrent scheduling is available with Salesforce Scheduler as the concurrency
limits are set for shifts and work types. However, if you're using an external scheduler that
supports concurrency, Intelligent Appointment Management reflects this as it fetches all
available slots.
