Scheduling a Task Delegation
Important:
When delegating a task, the users you delegate the task to must be granted the access and functional privileges required to work with the task type you are delegating. Otherwise, the task will not appear in the user's inbox, or the user may not be able to work with task. For more information, see Configuring Task Access Permissions.
*To schedule a task delegation
1. In My webMethods: Navigate > Applications > Monitoring > Business > Tasks.
2. Do one of the following:
*To create a scheduled task delegation for another user, click Task List Management.
*To create a scheduled task delegation for your account, click My Inbox or one of the task type inbox tabs.
3. In the results list panel, click the Scheduled Delegations link. The Scheduled Delegations page opens.

5. In the Add Delegation dialog box, select the type of task you want to delegate in the Task list.
6. Do one of the following:
*If you are creating a scheduled task delegation for another user on the Task List Management page, use both Browse buttons to specify the user you want to delegate from and the user you want to delegate to.
*If you are creating a scheduled task delegation for your account, use the Browse button to specify the user you want to delegate to.
7. To specify the period during which tasks are delegated, select one of the following in the Scheduled Delegation Dates list:
*Custom—This selection enables you to define a custom time period with the start and end date and time controls.
