We've made improvements to Workload Management to give support teams greater control over how you assign conversations.

Teammate configurations

You'll see a new "Teammates" tab in Workload Management settings to customize workload per teammate. You can:

• Quickly audit and change teammates membership in team inboxes from one central page.
• Set different assignment limits for individual teammates that fits with their experience and expertise.
• Prioritize inboxes by defining primary and secondary team inboxes for every teammate. Teammates will receive conversations from their secondary inboxes once their primary inbox is empty.

Pull a conversation into the inbox

You can also control whether teammates can self-assign conversations when they've cleared their inboxes.

When enabled, teammates can click the “Pull conversation” button in the inbox to assign a new conversation to themselves.

Are teammates forgetting to change their status to away by the end of their shift? No problem! Turn on Automatic Away Mode to ensure teammates' status changes to away or away & reassign after a defined duration of inactivity.

In addition, to better match with their shift schedule, teammates who belong to multiple workspaces can now configure their away status, conversation reassignment and away status reasons independently per-workspace.
