Round robin chat assignment

3 types of chat distribution, explained:

  • Manually – each chat needs to be assigned to a team member manually by an admin or a supervisor. Otherwise, agents can just answer chats so that they will get assigned to them automatically after the first message.
  • By round-robin – chats are assigned to team members one by one started from a team member who hasn’t been assigned for the longest period of time.
  • Last assigned – chats are assigned to a team member who was assigned to the previous chat with this customer. If there was no last assigned team member, the chat needs to be assigned manually.
