Re-staff Roles on an Assignment

Step-by-step instructions: Change who fills a Role on one Assignment
Updated 1 day ago

When a Procedure has Roles, such as Hiring Manager or IT Support, each Assignment of it records who fills each Role. Steps assigned to a Role, and Approvals by a Role, go to that member. If that member is away, or the wrong member was chosen, you can re-staff a Role on one Assignment without changing the Procedure.

  1. Select the Assignment and press the Info tab in the detail pane.
  2. In the Roles panel, choose the member who should fill each Role.

The change saves right away. Every Task whose Step is assigned to that Role moves to the new member, and appears in their Assignments Inbox. If you clear a Role, its Tasks go to the Assignment's Assignee.

The Assignment's Requestor and Assignee, and Portfolio Administrators and Leads, may re-staff Roles. The Roles panel appears only on Assignments of Procedures that have Roles.

To reassign a single Task instead, see Update Assignment/Task Assignee.
