What it does
A smart dispatcher for your business processes.
No work sits unassigned. Four ways accountability stays visible.
Team-based assignment
Route work to entire departments for collaborative handling and shared responsibility.
Smart routing
Automatically assign work based on form data, phase outcomes, or business rules.
Accountability tracking
Complete audit trail of who was assigned, when, and how they handled it.
Assignment methods
Three powerful ways to route work to the right people.
Direct Assignment
Assign specific individuals to handle particular types of work or workflow phases.
- ✓Specific team member selection
- ✓Role-based assignments
- ✓Expertise-based routing
Team Assignment
Route work to departments or teams where anyone can pick up and handle the task.
- ✓Department-wide queues
- ✓Collaborative team handling
- ✓Shared responsibility model
Smart Auto-Assignment
Let the system automatically assign work based on conditions, data, or workload.
- ✓Condition-based routing
- ✓Workload balancing
- ✓Round-robin distribution
Workload management
Distribute work fairly and monitor team capacity in real time.
Prevent any single team member from becoming overwhelmed.
Automatic balancing keeps work spread evenly while others have lighter loads.

Assignment rules & automation
Create intelligent routing rules based on data, conditions, or business logic.
Two of the most useful rule families — priority routing and time-based escalation.

NEW · Individual User Assignment
Assign accountability directly to individual users — no dummy teams required.
Why individual accountability
Why do we need individual accountability?
Previously, accountability could only be assigned at the team level. If a specific individual needed to be responsible, the workaround was to create a single-person "dummy" team — adding unnecessary overhead.
- ✓Assign accountability to individual users directly
- ✓Support clearer, more specific ownership of work
- ✓Eliminate the need for single-person dummy teams
- ✓Improve visibility of who is accountable for each phase
