Unassign User With Status Age Trigger

Unassign User With Status Age Trigger

A new lead comes in and is automatically assigned to a rep to start working. One day passes… then another… a full week goes by and the lead’s status still hasn’t changed. IRIS CRM allows you to automatically assign another user to work the lead, however, the initial user remains assigned – until now! Automatically unassign users with our newest Status Age Trigger

You’ll never close a deal with a lead if the assigned user doesn’t engage with them and update their status. Using Status Age Triggers to reassign leads bolsters the management of your funnel to give your organization a better chance at closing more deals. 

By automatically removing users with Status Age Triggers in combination with the trigger for assigning users, you’re able to ensure leads progress while making it clear who should be working on them. Automated user assignment can be configured for an entire user class so users get assigned in round-robin fashion to fairly and consistently assign leads. Create as many triggers as you need for a status so leads continue to be reassigned according to the duration of time a lead is stuck in a status.

Automating this process helps your team manage leads without the necessary manual clean up of removing assigned users who aren’t actively engaged with the lead. Your management team also gains peace-of-mind knowing that you have workflows in place to proactively update leads so they are more likely to progress through your deal funnel.
