Qualified Technicians
The Qualified Technicians field in the work order contains key-value pairs depicting the qualification status of the technicians for the work order.
This field may be populated with multiple key-value pairs. Each key-value pair contains information about a technician and their eligibility level for the work order. The whole string is termed as Qualified Technicians List (QTL).
The following is an example of QTL:
[{"valid":true,"tName":"BangTech5","tech":"a1D2I00000lo9QBUAY","stackRank":1,"skillR":null,"skillO":null,"prod":null,"prefType":"Preferred","prefTech":null,"eligibleRuleName":"Test1234","eligible":1},{"valid":true,"tName":"BangTech6","tech":"a1D2I00000o9jxtUAA","stackRank":1,"skillR":null,"skillO":null,"prod":null,"prefType":"Preferred","prefTech":null,"eligibleRuleName":"Test1234","eligible":1},{"valid":true,"tName":"BangTech7","tech":"a1D2I00000oB1ufUAC","stackRank":1,"skillR":null,"skillO":null,"prod":null,"prefType":"Preferred","prefTech":null,"eligibleRuleName":"Test1234","eligible":1},{"valid":true,"tName":"BangTech8","tech":"a1D2I00000oBJIfUAO","stackRank":1,"skillR":null,"skillO":null,"prod":null,"prefType":"Preferred","prefTech":null,"eligibleRuleName":"Test1234","eligible":1}]
