    Initiate callouts, generate ranked rosters by pay grade, and mobilize service resources during emergency restoration events. The emergency callout process helps dispatchers rapidly mobilize qualified field technicians for restoration work. When an outage or emergency occurs, the dispatcher creates a resource callout record linked to a service appointment on the work order. The system then identifies eligible service resources through the Field Service managed package, groups them by pay grade within each service territory, and generates a ranked roster for notification and response tracking.

    Mobilize restoration crews during emergencies, outages, and incidents by setting up Emergency Management. With Emergency Management configured, dispatchers can run a customizable callout process that checks workforce availability by pay grade, generates a ranked roster of eligible service resources, and notifies those resources directly on their mobile devices.
- **[Set Up Emergency Callout Notifications](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.energy_set_up_emergency_callout_notifications.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Mobilize your service resources by sending emergency callouts as push notifications to the Salesforce Field Service mobile app. Service resources can quickly accept or decline assignments directly from their device.
