Agent Assignment in Task Definition - getting rid of general tasks!

[Susan R. Keohan]

Hi Martin,
 
I am on 4.6c.
 
Thank you for clarifying the use of standard roles .vs. the use of the role
from the user profile.  I am not sure I can find a job which fits the need
but I will continue to try.
 
FYI, your presentation at the Fall Conference is what is inspiring me to
make these changes!
 
Regards,
Sue
