If you would like your team members to be notified when Distribution Engine assigns, alerts or reassigns then you can enable a workflow rule provided with the package.
- From the Setup area:
- Classic - click Create > Workflow & Approvals > Workflow Rules
- Lightning - click Process Automation > Workflow Rules

- Click Activate to enable email notifications

These standard notifications are not customizable. To create custom Email notification formats please see Custom email notifications topic
Enabling the workflow will enable the notifications for all distributors. You can turn these notifications off on a per distributor basis from the Post Assignment section of a team.
