Trips

A Trip represents the travel undertaken by a field agent during their workday. It helps track the field agent’s travel time and distance—whether they are commuting to a service location, moving between appointments, or traveling as part of any service-related activity. The details of trips can be accessed from the Trips menu under the Workforce tab. Trip details can be added for service appointments.
