How are users scored during ticket routing?

MSP Manager asks the following questions for each inbound ticket in order to calculate a user score, which determines the user that is ultimately assigned to the ticket.

The final score is cumulative. The customer, location, and skill level questions determine which users are assigned to the ticket and then the final question about workload reduces the assignment down to the user who is least busy.
