An appointment card in the Scheduled Service Appointments list shows the associated work type group and the assigned service resource. If the service appointment is a multi-resource appointment, the card shows the primary service resource by default. The service appointment card also shows:

  • An icon when the scheduled appointment start time and wait time duration threshold have passed, but the customer hasn’t arrived at the service territory. (1)
  • Wait time in red when the customer has checked-in, and the scheduled appointment start time and the wait time threshold have passed, but the service resource hasn’t attended to the customer. (2)
