    • You can activate the Field Service Quality Management plugin (com.sn_fsm_quality) for Field Service Management if you have the admin role. The application includes demo data and installs related ServiceNow® Store applications and plugins if they are not already installed.

    Before you begin

    Field Service Quality Management requires a separate subscription from the rest of the ServiceNow AI Platform.

    To purchase a subscription, contact your ServiceNow account manager. When you purchase a subscription, certain plugins are activated automatically. If a paid plugin isn't activated automatically, you can manually activate it from the All Applications list in your instance.

    Note:

    Before purchasing a subscription, you can evaluate the feature on a non-production instance without charge by requesting it from the Now Support Service Catalog.
