Step 1: Set the Basic Assignment Properties

1. Choose the appropriate client or your own organization.

2. Click Content (tab), then Assignments (menu).
   You see a list of the current assignments, who created them, and when they were created.

3. Click New Assignment.
   You see the first assignment properties screen.

4. Enter a descriptive Assignment Name.
   What Should I Consider When Choosing a Name?

   An assignment name should be descriptive enough to be meaningful to you, or another administrator, in the future. You should establish some conventions for assignment names, for example, "Series 100 to all users" for content assigned to all users, "Series 110 to managers" for content assigned to managers.

5. If you do not want the assignment to be active yet, select a status of disabled.
   When Would I Do This?

   It can be useful sometimes to set up assignments but only make them active at a future date. Keep in mind that the activities in an assignment may still be available to users, if those activities are part of another, enabled assignment or are otherwise made available to a user.

6. Click Next and go to the next step.
