After you create service appointment statuses and map each one to a status category, set the default status for the categories that automated scheduling uses.
Set default statuses separately for each scheduling method that's enabled in your org: field and on-site. We recommend the following default statuses.
| Automated stage | On-Site | Field |
|---|---|---|
| A service resource is assigned to the appointment. | Scheduled | Scheduled |
| The appointment is sent to the assigned resource. | NA | Dispatched |
| The appointment is canceled. | Canceled | Canceled |
