Use the General page to assign an individual user to a task. Each task must have an assignee who is responsible for completing the task. If you create a task, you are the assignee by default, but you may reassign the task to a different user if necessary.
The following table explains the fields in this section of the General page. The text in this section is read-only.
The following list summarizes key information about task assignments:
•By default, the name of a user creating a task displays in the Assignee field.
•You may only assign users to a task.
•A task can only have one active assignee at a time, the current assignee.
•The Assignee History section of the General page is read-only and displays all previous assignments.
•Make reassignments as follows:
oIndividually, by choosing a new user name in the Assignee field.
oIn batch, using the Reassignment tool accessible from the Tools drop-down list in the All tab.
