  • Manage work order tasks from your mobile device with the Now Mobile Agent application. You can stay connected and access information in real time so that you can complete your tasks quickly.

    If you're an agent (sn_fieldservice_agent​) or a manager (sn_wfo_fsm.manager), you both can use real-time notifications from the application to take action on an issue. ​Before you can do so, you must activate the Field Service Mobile plugin (com.sn_fsm_mobile).
