Customize the Dispatcher Console with Field Sets
Use field sets to control which fields appear in different sections of the Field Service dispatcher console. For example, choose which fields appear as columns in the appointment list.
Required Editions
| Available in: both Salesforce Classic (not available in all orgs) and Lightning Experience |
| The Field Service core features, managed package, and mobile app are available in Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer Editions. |
This is a Field Service managed package feature.
To manage a field set, from the Object Manager, find the object whose field set you want to edit—for example, Service Resource. Then, click Field Sets.
Field sets support the following field types: Number, Text, Date, Date/Time, Currency, and Reference (lookup fields). The Field Service managed package also provides additional field sets not included in this article.
Only fields related to the object that you’re editing are shown in the dispatcher console. For example, if you’re editing the Service Appointment object, only service appointment fields are shown. Fields related to a service appointment’s account aren’t shown.
