Create a service document template from Work Order, Work Order Line Item, and Service Appointment.

- From the Field Service mobile app, you can generate PDFs from Work Order, Work Order Line Item, and Service Appointment on both Android and iOS.
- From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Document Builder, and then select Document Builder.
- To create a template, click New Template.
- To indicate the type of service document you’re creating, for example, Service Appointment Debrief, add a label.
-
Select any object from the dropdown list: Work Order,
Work Order Line Item, or Service
Appointment. Your selection dictates which object the template
is created from and which fields and related lists appear in Document Builder.
Click Next.
Note If you don’t set the Service Document Template field from Work Order, Work Order Line Item, or Service Appointment, the document template can also be derived from one of the three corresponding Document Template fields on Work Type. -
Choose between a blank template and a standard default template. Using a
standard template gives you a starting point with added fields and related
lists.
Now you’re ready to start building your service document.
