Assign owner actions in workflows

Assign owner actions in workflows

Greetings, 

Previously, in Bigin, you could assign owners by updating the appropriate field. However, this method only allowed you to choose one owner at a time. To enhance this process, we've introduced a new Assign Owner action, which enables you to select an owner based on roles, users, and user fields. Owners are then assigned using a round-robin approach.

To assign an owner, navigate to Setup > Workflows > Provide the necessary details and criteria > Actions > Assign Owners.

You can assign an owner for the current record or any lookup records associated with it. Additionally, you can use user-defined lookup fields to assign owners.
                             
You can assign owners dynamically based on merge fields by choosing the User Fields option. All records assignments are made on a round-robin basis.
                       
You can also notify owners of new assignments via email.     
                        

Notes

  • You can choose multiple users at once, and all of them will be assigned on a round-robin basis.
  • The Assign Owner action is available in the Pipelines, Companies, Contacts, Tasks, and Events modules.

Availability: 

This feature is available in Free, Express, Premier, and Zoho One subscriptions.
