Vacation / out-of-office rerouting (property flag pauses assignment to a rep)

Outcome. New leads skip a rep who is currently out of office, and any lead assigned to them just before they left gets pulled back into rotation if nobody worked it, instead of waiting a week for their return.

When to use it, when not to

  • UseUse it for any team using Rotate record to owner, where reps take planned vacation, short leave, or become temporarily unavailable and someone needs to actively manage the exclusion.
  • UseUse it when whoever manages team scheduling is willing to update two list memberships by hand at the start and end of each absence; this fiche does not detect vacation automatically.
  • SkipDo not expect this to read a calendar or detect OOO status on its own. HubSpot has no native property on the Users/Owners object, so a human has to flag it, see Prerequisites.
  • SkipDo not use it for a permanent departure; see lead-routing-012 for deactivated users instead, which is a different, more final case.
