Assignments

You can track all IXIA CCMS Web work assigned to you on the My Assignments page.

Whenever you assign an object to other users, the object automatically becomes an assignment for the user or users you specify. If you assign another user a map, that user can edit any object in the map, even if not directly assigned to related map objects.

Note: If you assign a map to a user, the assignment includes all children topics of that map. However, assigning a map to a user does not automatically assign all children objects to the user.

Active assignments

You can define the entire workflow for the assignment and select all the users in their different roles while creating an assignment. The object does not need to be in a specific status to assign it to specific roles and users. The assignment becomes active only when it is in the correct status for users with the specific role for that status.

For example, you can assign a map to both contributors and reviewers, but the assignment is only active for contributors when it is in the Contribute state.

Assignments from earlier versions of CCMS Web

Since assignment rules did not exist prior to CCMS Web 6.2, assignments from earlier versions of CCMS Web do not have them. Any assignments made in older versions of CCMS Web require a user with the required access rights to modify them so that other users can change the assignment's status or mark the assignment as finished.
