  • Key Concepts: 
    Maximum travel is a feature of the CEC-SRV-FSM component of SAP software. It allows users to set a maximum distance that a service technician can travel to complete a service request. This helps to ensure that service technicians are not travelling too far away from their base location, which can help to reduce costs and improve efficiency. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the maximum travel feature, users must first set up the service technician's base location in the system. This can be done by entering the address of the technician's base location into the system. Once this is done, users can then set a maximum distance that the technician can travel for each service request. This can be done by entering the maximum distance into the system. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting up the maximum travel feature, it is important to consider the type of service requests that will be completed by the technician. For example, if the technician will be completing long-distance service requests, then it may be necessary to set a higher maximum distance than if they were completing shorter-distance requests. 
    
    Related Information: 
    The maximum travel feature is part of SAP's Field Service Management (FSM) component, which provides users with tools to manage and optimize their field service operations. Other features of FSM include scheduling, dispatching, and tracking of service technicians and their activities.
