Negative Line items on Purchase Orders and Sales Orders
Purchase Order integration - does this allow for negative purchase orders? In FO they use negative PO lines or a PO with a specific type to allow for parts to be returned. Currently there is logic with Field Service that prevents us from accepting those negative lines. CDS but Dual Write cannot...
Retrieve required work order skills from entities other than incident type (e.g. asset, product, customer)
OOTB the work order skills are populated based on the incident type. However multiple customers have explained situations where they would like to specify required skills also on the account (e.g. entry certificate), customer asset (e.g. for highly-customized assets) or product (instead of bui...
Alternate Mapping of Bing Maps 'Neighborhood' Field to the D365 'Address: City' Field
In Australia and perhaps other countries around the world, address standard include the 'Neighborhood' field from Bing Maps, not the 'City' field. For example, Adelaide in South Australia has a population of 1+ million and covers hundreds of square miles. Addresses are NOT written as: 1 George...
Thank you for your feedback.
Currently, we're working with Bing to see how this can be accomplished. We are aware of this ask and are tracking it. If we get positive feedback from Bing, we'd like to consider it in the future.

Cycle Count Process
In order to manage inventory a user should be able to complete a stock count process. Allow for randomization and set thresholds to encourage appropriate inventory management.
Thank you for your feedback. Currently this is not in our roadmap; however, we are tracking it and if we get more feedback and votes, we may consider it in the future.

Agreement Booking Setup's Recurrence Settings to draw from Entity Fields
Currently, the only fields the Agreement Booking Setups default to are the Start Date and End Date of the parent Agreement Entity. The other fields: Recurrence Patterns and Range of Recurrence (except Start Date) all have to be entered manually on each Agreement Booking Setup. (and Recurrence ...
Thank you for your feedback. We really like this idea. We are doing work in some related areas and may take the opportunity to look at some of this, depending on complexity.
At the moment, by itself, this is not currently in our roadmap; however, we are tracking it and if we get more feedback and votes, we may consider it in the future.
Thanks, Boris.

Prevent PO creation overwriting address fields
Thank you for your feedback.
We released this change. The system should now only populate this value if there is not an existing value present.
Thanks again for your great feedback and our apologies for not updating this Idea more promptly.

Make Image Controls available in Field Service Mobile
One of the newer controls added to the platform is the Image Control. The Image Control allows for uploading and storing of images in an Attribute, but more importantly the ability to draw and make comments on the pictures. Currently when using the control, the app will display a warning message...
Total working hours in Time entry
Currently in Time entry we can add total 24 hours for single day. However as per the customer requirement they have one field for working hours and another field for vacation. If for a particular day they have vacation they add 8 hours in vacation field, however if there client has some requireme...
Thanks for raising this idea. Unfortunately, there's not enough information here for us to understand what's realistically being requested.
That said, please feel free to raise this idea again with a little more detail allowing us and the community to give it more consideration.

Geofencing on Territories and Territories Grouping
Geofencing on Territories is highly desirable for the businesses who wants to provide work under different SLA’s for a specified territory. Updating work order statuses when within a certain radius of the Territory or Territories (currently tide up with customer location e.g. Service Acc...
Thank you for your feedback. We like the idea of creating a control to allow users to draw territory boundaries. This is something we looked into in the past.
Currently this is not in our roadmap; however, we are tracking it and if we get more feedback and votes, we may consider it in the future.
Thanks for sharing. Keep the ideas coming.

Customer Asset - Historical Records
Customer Assets may change over time. They may be upgraded and become a different product, other field may change, they could move accounts so their external id changes etc. Currently if you look at any Work Order/Incident, it shows you the current asset data. So if you look at an old call and...
Thank you for your feedback.
We are not considering the suggestion at this time:
- We don't believe this is a common ask.
- The concept of Asset history may make sense but the idea that we would preserve the asset state against each work order/work order incident at the time of creation is not something we're currently considering. We're concerned that this would lead to unnecessary data duplication, mobile sync complications, and potentially undermines the value of the relational database upon which the system is built.
- If the asset is replaced with another product, is it the same asset or was one asset retired and replaced? We think different organizations may answer this question differently. If we can offer functionality that will serve the majority case, it may make sense to revisit.
Thank you for sharing your idea. While we don't think we will move forward with this one, we hope you aren't discouraged from raising ideas in the future.

Thanks, Alexander.
I really like this idea and will begin to look into it further; however, if this gets more votes, it will be easier to justify prioritizing this idea.
