   Select a territory, and set the Start Date and the End Date and click Save.
   The period between the Start Date and the End Date is when the field technician will be active in that territory.
4. Click + New Line for Skills to add the skills for the field technician. Select a Skill and Rating. Click  to save. You can delete an entry by clicking the Edit [] icon and then the remove (X) icon.

Points to remember

1. Start Date is a mandatory field.
   
2. If an End Date is not provided for a territory, then the field technician will continue to be active in that territory until one is set.
3. When the field technician is no longer active in any of the assigned service territories, the field technician will automatically be considered inactive. Only active field technicians can be assigned to service appointments.
   
   
4. When you move the field technicians or crew under a service territory you are deactivating to a different service territory, the current date will be assigned as the Start Date of the new territory.
