Administrators have the ability to reassign work from one team member to another. While any administrator can do this, it is typically done by the project administrator. There are several reasons why this may be necessary; such as if the user's roles have changed; workload needs to be reallocated; the resource is on vacation, out sick or no longer available. Anything that is assigned to a resource can be reassigned, such as schedule tasks and workflow forms.
