Reassignment Limitations with Zendesk Auto-Accept
Is reassignment possible with Zendesk's auto-accept feature?
Currently, reassignment is not supported with Zendesk's auto-accept feature. This means that once a conversation is automatically accepted by an agent, it cannot be reassigned to another agent.
Before enabling auto-accept, any existing reassignment settings must be disabled. While this limitation may pose challenges, especially if an agent forgets to change their status, Zendesk is considering future enhancements to address reassignment needs.
