The Rescheduled Reason Survey comes ready to send a survey to each of your employees every time they reschedule an appointment.

1. Go to the navigation bar and click Settings .

2. In the side panel, click Dispatch Board > Rescheduled Reason.

3. Enter details in the Descriptor field, explaining why you’re surveying your technicians. Tip: Your team will adapt better to the Rescheduled Reason survey if you add a personal message from the owner explaining that the data gathered will be used to improve business processes and outcomes for everyone on your team.

4. Complete the following optional sections of the survey:

   • Quick Responses: Add, edit and reorder survey quick responses.

   • Default Survey Frequency: Select how often the survey should be sent per 100 reschedules, and whether employees are able to skip it. For example, to survey your staff

     • Every time a job is rescheduled, select 100 surveys per 100 rescheduled.

     • Half of the time a job is rescheduled, select 50 surveys per 100 scheduled.

     • Every tenth time a job is rescheduled, select 10 surveys per 100 scheduled.

   • Action Trigger: Select if the survey will be triggered on Reschedule or reassignment or Reschedule Only.

   • Survey Timeout: Enter durations to skip triggering the survey for reschedules on the same job for 0-30 minutes, and skip triggering the survey after initially booking a call for 0-60 minutes.

   • Individual Survey Frequency: Click Add An Employee and use the Select An Employee dropdown to select an employee whose survey frequency you want to alter. Then use the Survey Frequency Per 100 Reschedules dropdown to select how often that employee should be surveyed per 100 reschedules. Use this option to survey new employees more frequently until they are fully ramped up or to learn why certain dispatchers are rescheduling jobs more frequently than others. You can survey multiple different employees at different rates.
