#Before you start
- Sign in as litigation managers and investigation supervisors and confirm WatheeqTech shows /lex/cases/control/assignment; hidden controls indicate that your account lacks the required permission.
- Know the organization scope, status and urgency of the work you need to find before applying filters or saved views.
- Collect the reason, authority and supporting evidence required for any governed decision or state transition.
#How to use this page
- 1Prioritize the work
Filter the assignment queue by domain, team, priority and deadline, then review current ownership and workload indicators.
- 2Process the right item
Choose an eligible assignee whose role and capacity match the record, and record the reason when reassignment changes ownership.
- 3Clear the queue safely
Confirm the source record, workload summary and control queue all show the new owner without leaving a duplicate assignment.
#Governance and expected result
- Operate only within the tenant, role and record visibility granted to you.
- Record the decision, reason and supporting evidence before completing a governed action.
- Use the page action for the transition rather than changing source data or maintaining a parallel offline status.
- Verify the resulting status, owner, timeline, version or audit event before leaving the page.
