description: Assign a travel mode to a service territory or to a service territory member so that the Enhanced Scheduling and Optimization engine can consider the resource’s routing and travel preferences. Routing requests are based on the travel mode selected at the service territory level unless specified otherwise at the resource level. In this case, the resource territory membership setting overrides the territory-level setting. Only primary territory members can have a travel mode assigned to them. The primary service territory member's assigned travel mode determines the travel mode for all service appointments for that resource, regardless of the service territory of the appointment.

# Assign a Travel Mode to a Service Territory or Service Territory Member

Assign a travel mode to a service territory or to a service territory member so that the Enhanced Scheduling and Optimization engine can consider the resource’s routing and travel preferences. Routing requests are based on the travel mode selected at the service territory level unless specified otherwise at the resource level. In this case, the resource territory membership setting overrides the territory-level setting. Only primary territory members can have a travel mode assigned to them. The primary service territory member's assigned travel mode determines the travel mode for all service appointments for that resource, regardless of the service territory of the appointment.

Note Enhanced Scheduling and Optimization uses point-to-point predictive routing regardless of the travel time calculation preferences set in the Routing section of Field Service Settings.

Travel modes are applied only to territories using Enhanced Scheduling and Optimization. Travel mode can't be assigned to a secondary service territory member. All [Limits and Limitations for Enhanced Scheduling and Optimization](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=service.pfs_enhanced_available_limits&type=5&language=en_US) apply to travel modes.

1. From the Service Territories tab, click a service territory, and then edit the Travel Mode field.
    
    ![The Service Territory Details page showing where to select the Travel Mode.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-service-support_field_service-264-0-0-production-enus/3f7dceb9-dd70-454a-b49e-bbb4526a158d/support_field_service/images/pfs_select_travel_mode.png)
