# Delegating tasks

The **System Admin** has the authority to shift responsibility from one user to another, that is, to delegate tasks from one user to another. For instance, a user has five pending tasks but is not available to complete them, the **System Admin** can delegate those tasks to another user.

In order to delegate tasks,

1\.    From the menu bar, click **Manage users**. The **User Lists** screen is displayed.

2\.    From the left pane select the required user list to which the concerned user belongs. The list of users in the selected user list is displayed in the right pane.

3\.   Click on the name of the concerned user. The profile details of the user are displayed.

4\.   From the **More Actions** dropdown list, select **Delegate tasks to another user**.&#x20;
