Define rules for ticket routing

Use ticket routing rules to assign users to specific customers, or to a customer's location. When the customer submits an inbound ticket via email, the customer portal, or from N-central, the ticket routing rules determine to which technicians, or team of technicians that ticket is assigned.

Before getting started, make sure that both your customers and their locations have MSP Manager users assigned to them.
