When should we use the Reassignment option?

When a named user has created markups on their assigned document and then, cannot complete the assignment, we recommend giving the assignment to another user who belongs to the same group.

This will be required when e-PlanREVIEW® (EPR) is configured to prevent Reviewers from modifying another user's markups. For example, open comments need to be closed or sketches need to be changed/deleted.

How to perform a Reassignment

Option 1:

Give the assignment to a different user.

Why? Because comments, sketches, stamps, measurements, etc. that were created by the named user are typically protected from unauthorized changes by other reviewers.

This assumes that system Permissions have been configured so that reviewers may not edit markups made by other reviewers

Follow these steps:

1. Select the pencil icon to open the EDIT ASSIGNMENT form. Image Added
2. Select a different user in the drop down. 
3. Select SUBMIT.

Option 2:

Have a user with the proper permissions, (ie: the Group or Project Manager), complete the plan review.
