MB-910 Describe Dynamics 365 Field Service Practice Question
Woodland Services is a field service company that provides HVAC maintenance. They use Dynamics 365 Field Service. Their dispatchers use the schedule board to assign work orders manually. Recently, they have experienced an increase in customer complaints about missed appointments. Upon investigation, they find that some work orders are not being assigned to technicians because the dispatchers are overwhelmed. The company wants to automate the scheduling process to ensure all work orders are assigned promptly. Additionally, they need to consider that some work orders require specific certifications (e.g., handling refrigerants). The company has 10 technicians, each with different skills and territories. Which solution should the company implement?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse the schedule board's skill-matching highlight feature (Option C) with true automation, but it only assists manual assignment rather than fully automating the process.

Correct answer & explanation
✓
Configure Resource Scheduling Optimization to automatically assign work orders based on skills and location.
Resource Scheduling Optimization (RSO) in Dynamics 365 Field Service can automatically assign work orders to technicians based on predefined rules, including skill requirements (e.g., refrigerant certification) and geographic proximity. This directly addresses the dispatcher overload and ensures all work orders are assigned promptly without manual intervention.
