After you create skills and certifications, you can assign them to the field workers to track their areas of expertise. As a business administrator, you define the skills and certifications on work orders to ensure that the work is assigned to a field worker with the right qualifications. As a customer service representative or as a dispatcher, you can get a list of field workers who are eligible to take up this work, based on their defined skills and certifications.

You can also assign skills and certifications to field workers while creating field workers. For more information, see Creating a field worker. To assign skills and certifications to a field worker after creating a field worker, perform the following steps:

1. In the Pega Field Service Admin portal, click OrganizationField Workers.

2. On the Field workers page, select a field worker for whom you want to add a skill.
