If you would like your team members to be notified when Distribution Engine assigns, alerts or reassigns then you can enable the Flows provided with the package.

  • From Salesforce Setup area:
    • Enter 'Flows' in the Quick Find and click into that option.
  • Locate and activate the following Flows:
    • 'DE Email Notification on log update'
    • 'DE Email Notification on new log'
  • If you are utilizing Salesforce Teams, and the Distribution Engine feature to assign Team Roles activate the following Flows:
    • 'DE Email Team Role Notification on log update'
    • 'DE Email Team Role Notification on new log'

Activation when in Lightning Experience is done by clicking the arrow at the end of the row and selecting 'View Details and Versons'. Activation when in Salesforce Classic is done by clicking on the Flow's name.

These standard notifications are not customizable. To create custom Email notification formats please see Custom email notifications topic

Enabling the Flows 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.
