# Overview

The **Reassign Tasks** scheduler allows you to create a new mass update task, enabling you to reallocate selected tasks created by one user to the taskSched user, who will now run these tasks.

> ℹ️ This is not designed to change the owner of the task from User A to User B, only from User to the taskSched user.

# Reassigning Tasks

To reassign tasks to another user, perform the following:

1. Click the **Frameworks Menu **and navigate to **System Administration** > **Task Scheduler** > **Schedulable Tasks** > **Reassign Tasks** from the navigation tree.
2. From the **Report Criteria **tab, set the following parameters to ensure the reassignment is allocated correctly.
  - **Report Only: **When enabled, no reassignment will be made. When disabled, reassignment will be executed based on the user selection parameters.
  - **Tasks Created By: **Enter the username of the user who created the tasks you wish to reassign.
  - **Name Filter: **Enter keywords that match the task name. This field will only apply changes to tasks that are scheduled and match the specified pattern.
  - **Send Notifications: **Enter the users who shall receive notifications.** **

> ✅ **Tip:** For the **Name Filter** you can use “*****“ as a wildcard, for example, *debtor* will find all tasks with the Debtor in the name.

> ℹ️ If the **Send a Notification** checkbox is enabled, notifications are sent to the new user list.

3. Go to the **Schedule** tab and set the following:
  - Set the required import schedule parameters (e.g., once only, daily, weekly).
  - Select a task notification option to **Send a Notification **or **Send an Email**.
4. Click **Submit** to run the scheduled task.

> ℹ️ Once the scheduled task is executed, any task with a status of scheduled that matches the specified criteria will have the **Execute By** field (within the **Schedule** tab) updated to the **taskSched** user and the **Created By** field updated to the user who runs the update utility.

5. On the **Output** page, under the **Generated Reports** section, click on the **report** links to review the import.
