Skill Level Rule: An agent's Service Resource skill level MUST be greater than or equal to the level required by the skill-based rule mapping, or the case will bypass them. 2. Timezone Bug Fix: Always set a Service Resource's skill start date to at least one day in the past to avoid server timezone alignment errors. 3. Fallback Logic: When a field is blank, Salesforce gracefully falls back to Queue-Based routing unless a Default Skill is explicitly mapped.
