Assign, Claim, or Release a Lead

Assignment controls ownership and can affect who is allowed to see or act on a lead.

Where to find it: Admin → Pipeline → Contacts or a contact record

What to do

  1. Open the contact or select the contact in an authorized bulk action.
  2. Choose an eligible team member, or claim an unassigned lead when your team allows it.
  3. Save and confirm the new assignee on the record.
  4. Use Release only when the lead should return to an unassigned pool.

Good to know

  • Managers can generally see more records than agents.
  • If an agent disappears from the list, confirm the member is active and eligible for that lead book or routing pool.
