Assigning Tasks Overview

Project managers have several ways to assign tasks to team members.

How you assign your project tasks depends on what PPM screen you use to manage your schedule, and how you want to go about making assignments.

You can assign tasks anywhere that you have edit permission for a task. (Note: To assign tasks you need to have the Full Access permission for the tasks in your workspace. By default this permission is given to project managers.)

Assign tasks in the following locations:

Workspace Task List—Use the Workspace Task List to assign tasks individually or in bulk.
Workspace Gantt Chart—Use the Workspace Gantt Chart to assign tasks individually.
Global Tasks Application—Assign tasks individually using the global Tasks application.
