When you no longer need to work on a task, you can release it so that it can be assigned to someone else. Releasing a task returns it to the pool of unassigned tasks in the item list, allowing it to be assigned to or claimed by someone else.
To release a task, you must be in the Review or Helpdesk space. The Release action is available only for tasks that are assigned to you. You cannot release a task that is assigned to someone else; the task must be unassigned first. To learn about unassigning tasks, see Unassign a task.
If you have access to the Manage space and want to release a task so that you can assign it to someone else, a quicker way to do this is to reassign the task instead.
You can release a task in the Review or Helpdesk space from either a List screen or a Details screen.
