Reassign a Group of Open Evaluations
A group of open evaluation tasks may need to be reassigned to another evaluator for a variety of reasons:
- The review was not completed in the required timeframe.
- The evaluator has moved into a different position or department.
- The evaluator has left the institution.
Use the Reassign feature in TES® to reassign evaluations from one person to another.

Reassigning Evaluations
Be cautious when re-assigning courses. All courses that meet the search criteria will be reassigned. If only the Search button is selected, every open evaluation task will be reassigned to an evaluator.
1. Select Reassign.
The REASSIGN pop-up will appear:
2. Enter/select the following:
Note: (optional) Enter a message to the person to whom the evaluation task(s) is being reassigned |
Assign: Person to whom the evaluation task(s) is being reassigned (select from the drop-down) |
Send Email?: Select the checkbox to send a notification to the new assignee (recommended) |
Whether the Send Email? checkbox is auto-marked will depend on whether the TES® Administrator has established this default in Evaluation Tracker. See E-mail Alert Default Status for more information. If checked, the evaluator will only receive one email, regardless of the number of evaluation tasks reassigned.
3. Select Confirm.
Once selected, the All Open Evaluations screen will reappear. If desired, verify the selected evaluations are in the new evaluator's queue by selecting Search, and selecting the new evaluator's name from the Current Assignee list.
If the Send Email? checkbox was marked, the new evaluator will receive the following email alert:
The EVALUATION LOG of the evaluation task will retain a record of the reassignment.
If the evaluation results in an equivalency stored in TES, the full history will be available within the Equivalency Manager to those with the CREATE EQ user right. Those with the ACCESS EQ or CREATE EQ user right will also see this information in the Equivalency Finder.
