Assigning Cases

When you enter a case record, it needs to be assigned to a person or a group. Cases can be assigned manually or by case territories that Support Administrators or Support Managers set up. Support Administrators, Support Managers, and support reps can all assign cases.

When Wolfe Electronics support rep Inger Wyman receives a customer call with a question and creates a case record, she can do the following:

If the case is assigned to a support group or left Unassigned, another support rep can grab it. When a support rep grabs a case, it's automatically assigned to them. To grab a case, click Grab next to the case on the cases list. See Grabbing Cases.

If you don't see a Grab link, the case is already assigned to a support rep.

To assign a case to someone other than yourself:

  1. Go to Cases > Customer Service > Cases.

  2. Click Edit next to the case you want to assign.

  3. Under Primary Information, in the Assigned To field, select the person or group you want to assign the case to.

  4. Click Save.

This case is now assigned to the appropriate person or group and shows in their cases list.
