{Power 2022} How to add custom filter under “Field Service Schedule Board”? 

Business Requirement: Add a Custom filter for a table named “Language” on Field service Schedule board.

Solution:

Open your “Field Service” Application, make sure you are at the “Service” area (You may select the respective area from bottom left corner of the screen)

  • Select “Schedule Board” from the site map
  • Select the board in which you want to add a filter and then click on “Board Settings
  • Select “Other” and then edit “Filter Layout
  • Now, here we are adding “Language” entity filter (This is a custom entity I created). Add the following code under filter layout window:

<control type=”combo” source=”fetchxml” key=”Languages” unspecified-key=”UnspecifiedChildTerritory” label-id=”Language” entity=”test_language” multi=”true”>

         <fetch>

            <!– Table –>

            <entity name=” test_language “>

               <!– Filter By –>

               <filter type=”and”>

                  <condition attribute=”statecode” operator=”eq” value=”0″ />

               </filter>

            </entity>

         </fetch>

      </control>

  • Here “Language” entity filter which we were trying to add is added 😊

Hope it helps!
