Manage subgroups and reassignment changes
For: managers and collaborators.
General subgroups are used to distribute the members of a group and, if needed, assign different dates or conditions to tasks. They are not the same as task teams.
Create and assign
Section titled “Create and assign”- Enter the group from I manage and go to Members.
- Open Manage subgroups.
- Create subgroups with their own name and arrange their order.
- Assign participants; you can also use the quick assignment by dragging people to the subgroup.
The Distribute randomly option allocates participants without a subgroup. If subgroups already exist, it preserves existing assignments and tries to balance the remaining members.
History and effective date
Section titled “History and effective date”A subgroup change can have an effective date and is recorded in a history. Tasks already started keep the previous access conditions instead of changing them retroactively.
Important: deleting a subgroup requires that it has no assigned participants, no future changes, and no associated tasks.
