Overview Assignment rule is designed to help you automate the process of lead assignment. You
can configure different criteria per your industry's specifications like territory, product
interest, lead source etc., based on which the leads will be automatically assigned to the
selected rep.
You can either choose the users manually or select users suggested by Zia.

Zia observes the record management pattern and takes all the below parameters into
consideration for suggesting an appropriate record owner:
• Existing pattern
Zia will skim the records and identify the existing record assignment pattern. Let
us consider that you assign records based on the product type and the geographic
location of the customers.
§ Customers from New Jersey who are interested in Mutual Funds must
be assigned to Catherine Ross.
§ Customers from Georgia who are interested in Corporate Fixed
Deposits must be assigned to Roxanne Murphy.
So, Zia will observe this pattern and suggest an ideal user if the incoming records
match similar conditions.
• Everyday activities of the reps
Zia will observe the type of communication a user mostly performs: email
communication or calls. She will draw a pattern from the observation about the
user's preferential mode of communication.
For example, if user A mostly manages email communication then the records that
have value in the email field will be assigned to user A. Similarly, if the email
field is empty and phone number field has a value, then that record will be
assigned to a user that mostly manages calls.
• Online status of users
While setting the assignment rule if you check the "user availability before
assigning record", then Zia will take into consideration a user's online status,
namely if the user is logged in to CRM or not. If the user is not logged in, the
record will be assigned to the default user.
• Users' workload
Zia will suggest a user based on the number of records they manage in a day. For
example, if user A manages 50 customers in a day and user B manages 30
customers, then Zia will check if they have reached their maximum limit before
suggesting. Zia calculates the threshold limit and suggest users who have less
records as per their daily limit and she keeps a check on overloading the users.
