If you pick up a conversation that isn’t meant for you or your team, you can easily forward it to another user or team, or release it back into the unassigned queue. Forwarding helps keep conversations organized and ensures customers always reach the right person quickly.

If you forward a conversation to a team that you are part of, it will remain visible to you in the Unassigned view until someone else from your team claims it.

Best Practices

Forward conversations promptly when:
  • The topic falls outside your department’s scope.
  • The customer should speak to a specialist or specific region.
  • You’re unable to continue and need another team member to handle follow-up.
This keeps the customer experience smooth and prevents duplicate responses.
