# Auto-Assign

> Configure automatic round-robin assignment to distribute new funding submissions evenly across processors based on current workload.

# Auto-Assign

When enabled, new submissions are automatically assigned to processors based on workload.

## How It Works

1. A new submission arrives
2. The system checks if auto-assign is enabled
3. It finds the processor with the **fewest active items**
4. If there's a tie, it picks whoever was assigned least recently (round-robin)
5. The submission is automatically claimed for that processor

<Info>Auto-assign runs immediately when a submission is created. There's no delay.</Info>

## Manual Override

Auto-assign doesn't prevent manual work:

* Processors can still click **Claim** on any unassigned item
* **Pull Next** still works in My Queue
* Admins can reassign items at any time

## Managing Auto-Assign (Admins)

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Team Panel">
    Click the "Team" button in the funding queue header
  </Step>

  <Step title="Toggle Auto-Assign">
    Use the switch to turn auto-assign on or off
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set Max Load">
    Set a maximum number of items per processor. Once reached, they won't receive new auto-assignments.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Toggle Processors">
    Mark processors as active or inactive. Inactive processors won't receive auto-assignments.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Processor Workload

The Team panel shows each processor's current load. Auto-assign always gives work to the processor with the least items, keeping the team balanced.
