You'll set the fields in the 'actions' tab on the inbound action. 

current.caller_id = gs.getUserID();
current.description = "received from: " + email.origemail + "\n\n" + email.body_text;
current.short_description = email.subject;
current.location = gs.getUserID().location;
current.assignment_group = 'YOUR GROUP SYS_ID';
