    Default assign leads to a group of people

    How do I create groups of users.

    I want to be able to assign a lead to a group of people and whoever acts on it then updates it.
    Is this possible ? how or where do I great a group.

    Currently it only seams to be able to assign a lead to a person.

    Would it be better to just have one user account on SurgarCRM, that everyone uses ?

    You can mark a user record as a Group User in the Create User screen.
    Sugar Developer Zone - developer resources | Sugar University - user and admin training
    Sugar Docs - user and admin documentation |
    Sugar Bug Tracker - Enter or view bugs
    SugarForge- open source modules, themes, lang packs | SugarExchange - commercial extensions

    I have created the group user, but the problem is that incoming mail (to support@domain) creates a case as expected, but the "least-busy" or "round-robin" algorithms for assigning these to individuals applies to ALL sugar users on the system, not memebers of a specific group (such as "Support Group"). Still want everyone to be able to access/view/update for reporting, auditing and training purposes, but only the support agents themselves to actually be assigned the case ticket. Any way to associate specific users with a group like this?

    Thanks,

    Leland

    I'm not able to reproduce this issue in the latest version of Sugar 5.1. Can you tell me exactly which edition and version you are running?

    What is the team that is assigned to the Group Folder that you are using? The Round--Robin and Least Busy distribution methods should be acting on the team selected for the Group Folder that is associated with the Group Mail Account.
