Prepare for Work Plans

Create and design sample work plans in Field Service.

Required Editions

Available in: Lightning Experience
The Field Service core features, managed package, and mobile app are available in Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer Editions.

Collaborate with your team and outline sample work plans. For example, to design work plans for wind turbine maintenance, you capture typical maintenance steps at 6-month and annual intervals. A table or spreadsheet can help you identify how to reuse and revise work plans.

For this planned maintenance example, work plan selection rules use the work type field to represent the type of visit. Because the same safety and blade/bearing maintenance procedures occur at both visits, the rules can replicate the work plans for both visit types.
