✨ CAAC - Designated Assignment
“Designated Assignment” helps brands achieve more flexible chat service assignment and management. With this feature, brands can permanently assign conversations to specific agents, teams, or agents within a team, and provide real-time automatic replies for assignment results, optimizing the contact experience and improving internal operational efficiency.
👍 CAAC - Designated Assignment Highlights
- Flexible agent assignment: Invite contacts to click an assignment link or scan a QR Code to permanently assign them to a specific agent, team, or agent within a team, enabling more flexible service scenarios.
- Real-time automatic replies: After contacts scan the QR Code, they can immediately receive a notification of the assignment result.
- View conversation performance and reply quality of agents and teams through Data Insights: Please refer to: Tutorial|CAAC Data Insights - Conversation, Efficiency, Team
- Automatic tagging after assignment: After a Designated Assignment is established, the system can automatically apply CAAC tags to the contact, allowing the handover event to be written back as MAAC-usable tags for triggering subsequent Journeys or CDP segmentation, without the need for manual tagging.
➤ Applicable Users
- Brands that have enabled CAAC
- Brands using multiple seats (more than one seat)

📝 Use Case Examples
-
Scenario 1: A customer scans a specific agent’s QR Code in-store Assigned to the agent
- Each agent has their own dedicated QR Code. When a customer scans the QR Code and sends the assignment message, the system assigns the conversation to a specific agent within the team.
- If the assigned agent is unable to reply, other team members can quickly take over to ensure uninterrupted service.
- Team managers can use CAAC Data Insights to review the conversation performance and reply quality of agents within the team.
-
Scenario 2: A customer scans a specific team’s QR Code, then is manually or automatically assigned to a team member based on the team’s assignment rules
- Each team has its own dedicated QR Code. When a customer scans the QR Code and sends the assignment message, the system assigns the conversation to the team.
- Based on the team’s assignment rule settings, the team manager can manually assign the conversation to a team member, or the system can automatically distribute conversations in rotation.
- Team managers can use CAAC Data Insights to review the team’s conversation performance and reply quality.
