The problem

New or moved conversations can remain unassigned, get handed out unevenly, or depend on someone remembering to distribute the queue.

The module

Auto Distributor applies a mailbox-level rule only when the conversation is still eligible. Teams can choose rotation or least-open workload, select the assignment pool, defer to workflows, and keep diagnostics when deeper visibility is needed.

Best forTeams that want predictable ownership without a manual dispatcher.
