These are three factors that should be considered when configuring routing. Routing is the process of finding the best resource for a service appointment based on various criteria and constraints. A schedule policy is used to define the routing preferences and rules for a service territory or operating hours. A work rule is used to define a scheduling constraint or preference for a service appointment or a resource. A service objective is used to define a scheduling goal or metric for a service appointment. The Resource Availability work rule is used to calculate travel time and breaks as part of the resource's availability. The Default Travel Speed is used to estimate the travel time between locations if a different travel speed is not specified for the resource.

These are two actions that can help ensure that the technician who performed a customer's initial installation is also assigned to subsequent service calls. A preferred resource is a resource that has a preference or affinity for working with a specific account or service territory. A preferred resource service objective is a service objective that prioritizes resources that are preferred for an account or service territory. By adding the technician as a preferred resource on the account record, and adding the preferred resource service objective to the scheduling policy, the system can assign the technician to future service appointments for that account.
