Assigning a request

Roles and permissions

The following roles can assign a request:

  • Administrators

  • Compliance managers

  • Users

When a request is assigned to a team member, they’ll receive an email notification and/or a Slack/MS Teams notification depending on their notification preferences. If another user makes a change to a request, e.g. changing the due date or updating the status, the assignee does not receive a notification.

Note

Assigning a Hyperproof object or task to yourself doesn't send a notification to you.

Note

The user assigned to upload proof to a request, continues to receive notifications about that request until it is set to Approved or Closed, even if they have uploaded the requested proof.

Note that to receive Slack or MS Teams notifications, your organization must have the integration turned on. For more information on the integrations, refer to Integrations.

Prerequisite

For a team member to participate in an audit, they must be added to the audit. For information on how to add a user to an audit, refer to Adding a user to an audit.
