  WorkspacesThis topic relates to Journey Workspaces   |     Workspaces UserIncludes bank staff, helpdesk, relationship managers, and managers   |  18.11This feature was introduced in the 18.11 release24.04This feature was updated in the 24.04 release

As an application progresses through its life cycle, Journey Manager creates tasks that users can interact with. A task must be assigned to a user before they can work on it. Workspaces provides the Claim action as a convenient way to assign a task to yourself.

The Claim action can only be used to assign a task to yourself, not to someone else. If you have access to the Manage space, you can assign or reassign a task to another user. Claim, Assign, and Reassign are mutually exclusive actions, so only one of them is available at any time. To learn more, see Assign from a List screen and Reassign from a List screen.

Info

In the default Workspaces configuration, Assign, Reassign, and Unassign are only available in the Manage space.

You can't claim a task that is already assigned to someone. If you want to claim an assigned task, the task assignment must be removed first. If you have access to the Manage space, you can remove a task assignment using the Unassign action. To learn more, see Unassign from a List screen.

You can claim a task in the Review or Helpdesk space from either a List screen or a Details screen.

  1. Click the navigation menu icon to open the navigation menu, and select the Review or Helpdesk space. The List screen is displayed.
