Desk · Departments + Routing

Ticket routing with departments, teams and auto-assignment.

Routing in Flaxxa Desk puts each ticket in the right department and in front of the right agent without anyone sorting the queue. Departments keep teams apart, new tickets are assigned round-robin or to the least-busy available agent, and triage rules route email by sender or content.

Why does one shared queue stop working?

01

Everyone sorts

With billing and technical tickets mixed together, every agent becomes a part-time traffic controller.

02

Tickets wait unclaimed

Some sit for hours while two agents grab the same easy one.

03

Rotas live in spreadsheets

Who's on duty changes daily, and the queue doesn't know.

How does routing work in Flaxxa Desk?

01

Set up departments

Create departments such as Billing or Technical, each with its own agents, greeting and signature; add teams inside them.

02

Route by channel and rules

Each mailbox and ticket form feeds a department, and triage rules move email by sender or content.

03

Assign automatically

New tickets go round-robin or to the agent with the fewest open tickets, skipping anyone marked away.

04

Move when needed

Agents or automations can change the department, team or assignee, and the full history moves with the ticket.

03 / 04

What routing tools does Flaxxa Desk have?

Structure for teams past a single queue.

Departments

Separate queues with their own agents, greeting and email signature.

Teams

Groups of agents you can assign tickets to.

Round-robin

Agents take turns receiving new tickets.

Least-busy

New tickets go to the available agent with the lightest load.

Agent statuses

Available, away and custom statuses that assignment respects.

Triage rules

Equals, contains, starts or ends with, or regex matches on email fields, with all or any logic.

Automation actions

Set department, team, agent or priority from any automation rule.

Team roster

See who is available across the team at a glance.

04 / 04

What changes when routing runs itself?

Agents solve instead of sort.

Faster first replies

Tickets reach an available agent the moment they arrive.

Even workload

Round-robin and least-busy keep anyone from being buried.

Teams stay focused

Billing never scrolls past the technical backlog.
