Setting up assignment groups

concept brazil Updated Sep 10, 2026 1 min read setting-up-assignment-groups.md

Associate your assignment groups with an internal or an external business location. This association forms a one-to-many (1:M) relationship, which means, one or more groups can be associated with a service organization. This process makes it easier to route cases to the appropriate team member using the inter-organization support capability.

Important: Some table and field labels have been changed across recent releases. For a mapping of former labels to current labels, see Service Model Foundation renamed Entities.
