    Hi,

    To enforce Assignment Rules in Apex you will need to perform following steps:

    1. Instantiate the “Database.DMLOptions” class.
    2. Set the “useDefaultRule” property of “assignmentRuleHeader” to True.
    3. Finally call a native method on your Lead called “setOptions”, with the Database.DMLOptions instance as the argument.

    // to turn ON the Assignment Rules in Apex

    Database.DMLOptions dmlOptn = new Database.DMLOptions();

    dmlOptn.assignmentRuleHeader.useDefaultRule = true;
    leadObj.setOptions(dmlOptn);

    Thanks

    Adding some code snippet:

    AssignmentRule AR = new AssignmentRule();
    AR = [select id from AssignmentRule where SobjectType = 'Lead' and Active = true limit 1];

    //Creating the DMLOptions for "Assign using active assignment rules" checkbox
    Database.DMLOptions dmlOpts = new Database.DMLOptions();
    dmlOpts.assignmentRuleHeader.assignmentRuleId= AR.id;

    Lead newLead = new Lead(Status = 'New') ;
    //Setting the DMLOption on Lead instance
    newLead.setOptions(dmlOpts);
    insert newLead ;

    Thanks
