Reassigning Tasks

Task assignees can reassign their tasks to other users. For example, if an assignee has planned to be out of the office for vacation, then the assignee can reassign their tasks to another user.

When tasks are reassigned, email notifications are sent immediately to reassigned users.

Note:

Request Reassignment isn't available for Administrators or Task Owners because they can edit the task to assign it to another assignee or approver.

To reassign a task:

1. From the Home page, click Tasks, and then click Worklist.
2. On the Worklist, select the task for which responsibility is to be reassigned.
3. On the selected Task page, select Actions, and then click Request Reassignment.
4. From To User, click Select User to select the user who is assuming responsibility for the task.
5. Under Reassign, select the appropriate option:
   • Selected Tasks only
   • Selected and Future Tasks to permanently transfer responsibility.
   • Enter the Justification for the transfer of responsibility, such as vacation, transfer of roles, and so on.
6. Click OK.
