Hi,
For our Freshdesk instance the Field Service Management module is activated.

At my company it is tipical to send 2 field technicians on site to perform a repair activity.

To create the on site calls we create Service Tasks from tickets.

In a Service Task it is possible to define the responsible field technician.

But this can be done by choosing ONLY ONE from the list of field techs.

Is it possible to setup Freshdesk system to allow us to assign more than one Field Technician to the same Service Task ?
Thank you!

Hi @Gabor  Service Task cannot be assigned to more than one Field technician however you can enable automatic Field task creation from Automation module. Refer to the below link ( Copy the link text to your browser)

Thank you @vinothkumar.manoharan !
That was my assumption.

However I think it is a valid request.

Can you convert this Question to an Idea ?
