Many task templates in IMP contain predefined users so that team members who routinely handle certain production tasks are automatically assigned that task when a template is applied to content. When a new person assumes those responsibilities, any task template where the former assignee appears will need to be updated to reflect the reassignment.
Step 1: Locate the Task Template(s) that Need to Be Updated
From the Admin menu, select "Task Templates."
Since most templates are organized by Department, filter the template list by the appropriate department (in this case, "Staying Sharp").
Step 2: Click on the Task Template Name to Open the Task List
The Web Photo Editor in this example needs to be reassigned from Kate Patterson to Stephanie Ciaccia:
Step 3: Select the Job Role for Task to Be Reassigned from the Dropdown
At the top of the task list you'll see two dropdown menus: one for all the roles listed in the template; the other for all users who have been assigned those roles in their user profile.
Step 4: Select the Name of the New User in the Job Role
If a user's name does not appear in the dropdown for the role you need to reassign, make sure they have that role in their user profile:
Step 5: Click "Assign"
All tasks for the Web Photo Editor in this task template have now successfully changed from Kate Patterson to Stephanie Ciaccia:
