Walk-Up Assignment Groups

I have multiple location queues setup for walk-up. How do we route a walk-up appointment to a location's queue?  Is there any table or setup required where we define location-to-assignment group mapping?

Hi pramodpramo,

Good question — this comes up quite often when configuring Walk-Up Experience with multiple locations, and there isn’t a direct OOB mapping table for location → assignment group.


1. How routing works OOB

In Walk-Up:

  • Appointments / check-ins are tied to:
    • Walk-Up Location
    • Queue
  • The queue itself is associated with an Assignment Group

 So routing is indirectly handled via:
Location → Queue → Assignment Group


2. Key configuration (important)

You should check:

  • Walk-Up Location (sn_wu_location)
  • Walk-Up Queue (sn_wu_queue)

Each queue has:

  • Assignment group
  • Location reference

This is where the mapping effectively happens


3. Recommended approach → Use Queue mapping

For multiple locations:

  • Create separate queues per location
    • Example:
      • Hyd Location → Hyd Queue → Hyd Support Group
      • BLR Location → BLR Queue → BLR Support Group

 When appointment is created:

  • It gets associated with the queue
  • Assignment group is derived from that queue

4. If auto-routing is not happening

Then you may need:

Option 1: Flow Designer / Business Rule

  • Trigger: Walk-Up appointment created
  • Logic:
    • Check Location
    • Assign corresponding Queue / Assignment Group

 Option 2: Custom mapping table (if complex)

If you have many locations:

Create custom table like:

  • u_location_assignment_mapping

Fields:

  • Location
  • Assignment Group
  • Queue

 Use this in:

  • Flow / BR for dynamic routing
