Description The Default Assignment Owner field contains the name of the enterprise user who is responsible for entering status on a given assignment. This field is set in Microsoft Office Project Web Access.
How Calculated The default assignment owner is identified in the Resource Center of Office Project Web Access.
Best Uses Add the Default Assignment Owner field to a resource sheet to view the name of the individual with the responsibility for entering actual work or reporting on status for an assignment. The default assignment owner is responsible for reporting on any assignments that do not have another assignment owner designated. The default assignment owner can also be responsible for assignments with material resources, and generic resources.
Example You have several generic resources and material resources assigned to tasks in your project. Because you want to make sure that these assignments always have their status accurately reported, you add the Default Assignment Owner field to the Resource Sheet to make sure that all assignments have an owner.
Remarks You can see the default assignment owner using the Resource Information dialog box. Double-click any resource. On the General tab in the Resource Information dialog box, review the name in the Default Assignment Owner box.
The Default Assignment Owner field is not available for local (non-enterprise) resources.
