This service is reserved for future use. When implemented, it will track regions for auto-assignment of a person, employee, or company for a given case based on the postal code where the case is located.
Currently, an organization can store information in this service but it does not drive other system functionality to automatically assign cases.

Ranking
This field stores a ranking for the postal code. It currently does not drive system functionality. If an organization wants to use this for tracking purposes, it can rank assignees for a particular postal code. For example, a new case in a specified postal code should be assigned to the record with a ranking of 1. However, if that employee, person, or company is unavailable or has reached the case limit, then the new case should be assigned to the record for that postal code with a ranking of 2.
