Manage Contractors
Contractors group technicians and associate them with regions. This association can affect how the system matches technicians to tasks at customer sites.
When a technician and a customer site share the same region through a contractor, the technician can be assigned to tasks at that site.
Use work groups instead of contractors for most new implementations.
