Purpose

Assign or reassign cases so the right person owns the work.

Who can assign

  • Admins can assign any case to any facilitator.
  • Facilitators can:
    • Self-assign open referrals from the inbox.
    • Reassign their own cases to another facilitator (with a reason).
  • Teachers cannot assign cases.

How

  1. Open the case.
  2. Assignment → Change.
  3. Pick the new facilitator.
  4. Add a short reason (audit-logged).
  5. Save.

The new owner receives an in-app notification and an email. The previous owner receives a notification confirming the handoff.

Co-facilitators

For complex cases involving more than one staff member:

  1. Assignment → Add co-facilitator.
  2. Pick the additional user.

Co-facilitators have the same edit rights as the primary; only one is the "owner of record" for reporting.

FAQ

Can I bulk-reassign cases (e.g. when a staff member leaves)? Yes — Administration → Users → ⋯ → Reassign cases. Choose the new owner.

Does the teacher see who the assigned facilitator is? Yes, on the case in their portal.
