Overview

Data Model

Routing

Omnichannel

Omni-Channel is a flexible, customizable feature, and you can configure it declaratively—that is, without writing code. Use Omni-Channel to manage the priority of work items, which makes it a cinch to route important work items to agents quickly.\ Manage your agents’ capacity to take on work items so that they’re given only the number of assignments that they can handle. You can also define which agents can work on different types of assignments.

Assignment Rules

Assignment rules automate your organization’s lead generation and support processes.\ Use lead assignment rules to specify how leads are assigned to users or queues. Use case assignment rules to determine how cases are assigned to users or put into queues.

Auto-Response Rules

Create auto-response rules for leads captured through a Web-to-Lead form and for cases submitted through a self-service portal, customer portal, web-to-case form, email-to-case message, and on-demand email-to-case message.
