Assign Groups to a Change Category

To configure auto assignment for a change category, you must at a minimum define the relationships between analyst groups and the category.

Assignees are chosen from groups that meet all of your specified auto assignment criteria. If no additional constraints are defined, tickets are auto assigned to the group member with the fewest active tickets.

If no groups are associated with the category, the default group and assignee are assigned. If these defaults are not defined, the ticket is left for manual assignment.

Note: For more information, see the Administrator Guide.

   The Groups Assigned Update window opens.
