Portal Users & Admins of companies enabled for "Project Assign | Re-assign" are able to search across your org's project database, locate projects that are unassigned, and even re-assign projects from one user to another.
Note: If you would like this feature enabled for your company, reach out to a PLNAR representative to get your team situated.

Assigning | Reassigning Projects
Assigning a Project to Yourself
If the project returned via search, is "Unassigned", an "Assign to Me" link will be available under the "Initiated By" column. Simply click/confirm to take ownership of the project.
Refresh your screen, and voila! It will appear in your project list view.
Assigning or Reassigning a Project to Another User
Looking to re-assign a project from one user to another? Can do using the Re-Assign feature.
Using the same search technique outlined above, find the project you wish to re-assign. Click the gear icon next to the project name to open the Project Options menu.
With the menu displayed, click the RE-ASSIGN button to activate the field. Search for yourself or the assignee you wish to delegate the project to. Click SAVE to confirm.
Just refresh your project list for the settings to take effect.
*If you're using the Plnar Pro app, the newly assigned project will appear in the selected user's Project List within the app.
