Reassigning a group of accounts to a particular Sales Rep is done through the Accounts Tool. In this case, the current Sales Reps on the accounts may all be different. This function can be used to redistribute accounts to a new Sales Rep or when minor adjustments need to be made.
To reassign accounts:
1) Make sure you are logged in with an ID that has administrative privileges.
2) Click on View->Accounts.
3) Display a list of accounts that includes the account(s) you want to reassign.
4) Click on the SEL box of each account in the list that you want to be reassigned to the same user so a checkmark appears.
5) If you only
want to reassign a particular Sales Rep’s open leads, open tasks, and/or future
appointments for the selected accounts (instead of all Reps), select the name in
the Sales Rep pull-down field. (DO NOT click on Refresh.)
6) Click on the
button. One of the following forms
appears, depending on whether a User name was selected in the Accounts List.
7) In the To User field, select the Sales Rep that should be assigned to the account(s).
8) In the SRA Category field, select the SRA category for the Sales Rep. (All will assign the Sales Rep to all categories.)
9) Click on checkboxes as needed. See the following table.
10) Click on Save.

selected accounts that have the selected category. If a User Name was
selected in the Accounts List, only the open leads assigned to that Rep

To Rep. |

assigned to the To Rep. If no User Name was selected, ALL
upcoming appointments for the accounts will be assigned to the To
Rep, even if you are only reassigning one SRA
category. |
