# How do I transfer my work to another User?

{% hint style="info" %}
Taking a short break from the Project, or leaving for good? You’re in the right place! This FAQ will cover how to re-assign work to someone else, so you don’t impact the Team too much whilst you’re away.
{% endhint %}

There are three ways you can put someone else in control of your work:

* **Assign another user to your Task(s)**

  This option is a good choice if you’d like to assign permissions over certain Tasks to different users, without giving them permission over your work as a whole.

  The easiest way to set a user as an assignee for multiple Tasks is with multi-select:

  1. Select the Tasks you’d like to assign
  2. Click the pencil icon to open edit properties menu
  3. Click **Assignee**
  4. Select the user(s) that you’d like to assign the Tasks to
  5. Click ✓ to confirm

* **Set another user as your delegate**

  Delegates are great option if you’d like to delegate permissions over your work as a whole to another user whilst you’re away.

  You can set delegates from the **Users** page:

  1. Locate the user that you’d like to set a delegate for
  2. In the **Delegates** column of the Users table, click **+**
  3. Select the user(s) that you’d like to make a delegate
