Set conditions: - If subject contains 'billing' → Assign to Finance Team - If subject contains 'bug' or 'error' → Assign to Engineering - If subject contains 'cancel' → Assign to Retention Team 4. Set priority and order for multiple rules 5. Save and enable **Pro Tips:** - Rules are evaluated top to bottom — put specific rules before general ones - Use keyword groups for better matching (e.g., 'billing OR invoice OR payment') - Set a default assignee for emails that don't match any rule You can also use round-robin assignment within teams to balance workload. Set this up under Settings > Teams > Load Balancing.
