How Resco Mobile App User have different Security roles on multiple projects in Field Service

Hi Everyone,

Today i am going to share quick tip on how to check the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service Mobile App Users security role levels and how they are varied in terms of  Mobile App users access to various projects within the Organisation.

So let’s get’s started.

Let’s assume an Organisation have multiple projects of Field Service, so the users might be the resource in that project. There are different security roles to each resource.

In order to check the security role on  Resco MobileCRM  Woodford Solution:

Go to Dynamics 365 >  Settings > Woodford > MobileCRM Woodford >

Click on the “show users” button on the navigation pane. New pop up comes up with the list of users with their security roles.

See below image:

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service Mobile App User security role  points to remember as follows:

1) we must assign the security roles we want the project to apply to the user.
2)All users with that role are added to the project.
3)Users added to the multiple projects will receive the project  with the higher priority.
4) See the users associated with a project using show users.

I hope this helps.

Suppose in a organisation a Team Manager  needs a schedule Board to manage his/her team – System Administrator set up the Schedule board for that Manager.

Then the Manager once login’s  he/she should be able to see their Schedule Board.

Let’s get’s started.

Initially Schedule Board is “Initial Public View”.

In order to create new Schedule Board click  “+” sign..

Give the Tab Name and Shared With “specific people” or “Just Me” or  “Everyone”.

Fill in all the General Settings and Schedule Types configuration, once required fields filled click on “Add” button at the bottom.

Then the new Tab is added to the Schedule Board see below:

As you can see from above image “MallaGurram” tab is added , on the left hand side you can set filter for that user and save – “Filter & Map View area.
Resource = ” MallaGurram” and save filter.
Assign the new created Scheduled Board to the user “MallaGurram”,  Go to Advanced Find and select the Schedule Board Setting and select the “Active Schedule Board Settings”, click result, see below:
