Utilizing Copilot within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service

Posted on: December 18, 2025 | By: Page Wildridge | Microsoft Dynamics Business Central

AI is a helpful tool for keeping your operations teams efficient while helping customers informed. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service now brings Copilot directly into the workflow, allowing organizations to reduce manual data entry, assign the right technician the first time, and keep customers updated automatically. In this blog, we will explore how Copilot can interpret incoming requests, assist with technician scheduling, and support your client interactions.  

Turning Emails into Work Orders 

One of the most time-consuming steps in field service is translating scattered customer emails into structured work orders. Copilot streamlines this process by reading the customer’s message, identifying the issue, and drafting a complete work order inside Dynamics. It pulls relevant account details, flags missing information, and prepares a clean summary that technicians can act on. Instead of searching through long email threads, field service agents can finalize the draft in seconds and move on to the next request. 

Recommending the Right Technician 

Copilot helps users organize their team in order to make sure that requests get completed in a timely fashion. Each job requires different skills, certifications, availability, and equipment. Instead of manually combing through your technicians to find the right one to get a task done, Copilot can assist you in analyzing the job’s requirements and suggesting best next steps. It reviews skills, proximity, availability, and past job performance to recommend matches that improve efficiency and reduce callbacks. With intelligent recommendations built into the schedule board, dispatchers spend less time sorting through options and more time keeping the day on track. 

Creating Customer Notifications Automatically 

Clear communication with your customers is pertinent for maintaining strong relationships. When customers are waiting for updates or for technicians within an arrival window, Copilot can help your teams ensure that your customers are in the know. Copilot can generate helpful notifications such as appointment confirmations, day-of reminders, or updates if plans change. Additionally, Copilot can give customers estimated technician arrival times by tracking their approximate location to help customers plan their days. By automating routine communication, teams ensure customers stay informed without adding extra work for agents or technicians.
