Catalog listing of the 5 preview questions for this quiz.

Question 1

A company wants to charge customers for field service based on time and materials. The billing system needs data on: actual technician labor hours, parts used with list prices, and any travel charges. Which FSM feature captures this billing data?

Answer choices

  • A. Technicians submit manual timesheets at the end of each week

  • B. FSM Time Tracking captures actual labor hours per work order task (start/stop timers in mobile app); Parts consumption records parts used with catalog pricing from the parts catalog; Travel charges are calculated from GPS odometer data or configured distance rates; a billing integration or FSM Cost Tracking module aggregates these for invoicing or ERP handoff

  • C. Estimate billing based on scheduled appointment duration

  • D. Create a manual bill after reading work order notes

Question 2

A telecommunications company's FSM implementation requires that work orders for high-value enterprise customers are always completed within a 4-hour response window, while residential customers have an 8-hour window. How should SLAs be configured in FSM?

Answer choices

  • A. Add a note to work orders for enterprise customers asking technicians to prioritize them

  • B. Define FSM-specific SLA Definitions with different response time targets: one definition for Enterprise account type (4-hour window, escalation at 3 hours) and one for Residential (8-hour window), applied via SLA Conditions based on the customer's account type field

  • C. Create two separate FSM instances — one for enterprise and one for residential

  • D. Configure Priority levels (Critical, High) to differentiate enterprise from residential

Question 3

A utility company uses FSM and needs to comply with safety regulations requiring that before a technician begins hazardous work (gas line repair), they must acknowledge a safety briefing and confirm they have the required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). How can FSM enforce this pre-work safety acknowledgment?

Answer choices

  • A. Email safety briefings to all technicians weekly

  • B. Configure Pre-Work Checklist on the Work Order Task for "Gas Line Repair" type — the checklist appears in the mobile app before the technician can change status to "In Progress"; checklist items include PPE confirmation, hazard identification, and safety acknowledgment; the task cannot progress without completing the checklist

  • C. Train supervisors to call technicians before each gas line job

  • D. Add safety information to the work order description field

Question 4

An FSM implementation for a retail chain needs to track service history for each store location, including all past work orders, installed equipment, maintenance records, and pending open issues. Where in ServiceNow FSM is this information aggregated?

Answer choices

  • A. Run ad-hoc reports filtering work orders by store address each time

  • B. The Location record (or Account/Asset record) in ServiceNow serves as the hub: all work orders, CIs (installed equipment), maintenance history, open issues, and associated contracts are linked to the location record; FSM and CSM agents can view the Location 360° view showing this complete service history in a single widget

  • C. Create a custom application to store location service history

  • D. Maintain a SharePoint site for each store with service records

Question 5

A field service manager notices that technicians are frequently traveling long distances between jobs, resulting in low productivity. The company wants to enable route optimization. What FSM feature addresses this?

Answer choices

  • A. Manually review each technician's schedule daily and rearrange tasks by location

  • B. Enable Route Optimization in the Dynamic Scheduling Engine, which considers multiple pending work orders, technician current locations (via GPS from mobile app), appointment time windows, and generates the optimal visit sequence minimizing total travel distance/time

  • C. Create a Scheduled Job that sorts work orders by zip code and assigns them sequentially

  • D. Use Google Maps integration to show technicians their work orders on a map, and let them self-organize
