# [Assigning Tasks](https://intum.com/help/organization/assigning-tasks.md)

## Who Can a Task Be Assigned To

Each task can have one **responsible person** (the "Assigned to" field). You can assign to:

- [**User**](uzytkownik) - a specific person from the [team](zespol)
- [**Group**](grupa) - a [group](grupa) of [users](uzytkownik) (e.g., "Developers", "Customer Support")
- [**Team**](zespol) - an entire project [team](zespol)

Additionally, a task can be assigned to:

- [**Team**](zespol) (Team field) - independently of the responsible person
- [**Department**](dzial) - a [department](dzial) in the company
- [**Project**](projekt) - a [project](projekt) within a team
- **Client** - a client from CRM

## How to Assign a Task

### When Creating

1. Click **+** (New Task)
2. In the **Assigned to** field, type a name or [group](grupa)/[team](zespol) name
3. The system suggests matching results
4. Select a person, [group](grupa), or [team](zespol)
5. Save the task

If you don't select a responsible person, the task inherits one from the [project](projekt) or [team](zespol) (if set).

### Quick Change from the Task List

On the list or in the task view, click on the responsible field — a selection list will appear. The change is saved automatically without opening the edit form.

### Bulk Change

1. Select multiple tasks on the list (checkboxes)
2. A bulk options bar will appear
3. Choose **Assigned to** and select a person
4. The change will be applied to all selected tasks

Bulk options also work for: [team](zespol), [department](dzial), status, client, [project](projekt), and tags.

## Notifications

When you assign a task to someone, the system automatically sends a notification:

- **New task** - the responsible person receives an assignment notification
- **Responsible change** - the new person receives an update notification
- **Favorites** - people who added the task to favorites also receive change notifications

**Note:** Notifications are not sent to [groups](grupa) — only to individual [users](uzytkownik).

## Task Tracking (Favorites)

If you want to receive notifications about a task you're not assigned to — add it to **Favorites**. This way you'll be informed about every change.

The responsible person is automatically added to the task's watchers.

## Change History

Every assignment change is recorded in the task history. You can check who changed the responsible person and when in the activity tab.
