How do I assign cases to colleagues?

This article will guide you through how to change the case owner of a case

💁 Company admins can assign any case to any other company admin or case owner

💁 Case owners can assign any cases they created to any company admin or case owner

 

✋ If you are a case owner and you assign your case to a colleague, you will no longer be able to edit this case. To own that case again, the new case owner needs to assign it back to you

👥 If you would prefer to remain as the case owner but require colleagues to help on the case, you can add collaborators 

 

  • To navigate to Your overview or Company overview please click the menu button in the top right-hand corner
     20220106 Your and Company Overview with arrows
  • You will see cases displayed in the overview. Click the three dots at the end of the relevant case row to see Actions and from here choose Change case owner



  • Select the name of the person you want to re-assign the case to, click Reassign case and this will happen immediately
