Using the Instance Manager : Reassigning Available Tasks
 

Reassigning Available Tasks

If the performer of a workstep is a list of names or a group with the role of "any", then its tasks have an Available status when they are created, and remain in this status until you assign them to a specific performer.
To reassign one available task, a selected batch of available tasks, or all available tasks to specified performers:
1. In the Management module, click Instance Manager > Tasks to view the Performer List page.
2. Select an application from the Application drop-down list.
3. Select Available from the Task Type drop-down list, and click Go.
The Performer List page appears.
Note: The Performer List page displays only user and group performers. It does not display any performer for a task having queue as a performer.
4. Before you reassign tasks, select the performers whose tasks you want to reassign.
To locate specific performers, use the search functions on the Performer List page.
5. Click Search.
The Reassign Assigned Tasks page appears and enables you to reassign an assigned task (i.e., change the performer property of a task). This page contains two frames: the top frame lists the specified performers for the selected application; the bottom frame enables you to select a common performer for all the instances listed in the top frame.
6. The procedures for reassigning available tasks are very similar to procedures described in step 6 in ReassigningAssigned Tasks.
