In Salesforce Field Service (FSL), when using the Book Appointment Quick Action on a Service Appointment (or Work Order), dispatchers or admins may see the message: 'No slots were found.' This is not an error — it means the scheduling engine evaluated all available Service Resources but could not find any that satisfy the configured Work Rules in the active Scheduling Policy for this appointment. The steps below describe how to identify which Work Rule is causing the appointment to go unscheduled.
When receiving the Field Service message that "No slots were found", perform the following to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Identify a Service Resource who has available slots for the Service Appointment in question.
2. Identify what Scheduling Policy is being used by the quick action:
3. Navigate to the Dispatcher Console (also known as the Field Service tab).
4. Set the Policy to the Scheduling Policy you took note of in step 2.
5. Drag the affected Service Appointment from the Service Appointment list to the Gantt row for the identified Service Resource from step 1.
6. Hover over the Service Appointment.
The list of violated Work Rules will be shown under the Rule Violations section of the tool-tip.
