Omni Channel Setup
How to setup Omni Channel in Salesforce
Omni channel is Salesforce functionality that allows you to assign Salesforce records to agents based on queues, priority, and agent availability.
Create Routing Configuration
Go to Setup --> Search Routing Configurations
The routing priority determines the order in which work items are pushed to agents. Higher-priority work is pushed before lower-priority work. For example, work that’s Priority=1 is considered to have a higher priority than work that’s Priority=5.
