Reassign an alert to a responder when the alert task should be addressed by a particular user.

## Before you begin

This action is available when the Assigned to field in the alert is populated.

Role required: Responder, Manager, or Administrator

## Procedure

1. Navigate to WorkspacesService Operations Workspace.  
   You are taken to your SRM homepage.  
   Note:  
   If you have other SOW applications, and depending on your assigned roles, that homepage may not be the SRM homepage. It is the SOW homepage instead, with SRM alerts and incidents included in your metrics. In that case, to view SRM specific areas, select SRM modules from the left navigation pane.
2. From the left navigation pane, select the reliability tasks icon (![Reliability tasks icon]()). {#sr-reassign-alert-user__select-reliability-tasks}
