# Job Assignments in Pathwave

## The Job Assignments feature allows partners to assign team members to specific jobs in Pathwave. Assigned users receive instant notifications and can filter their job board to see only their assigned work.

### **Overview**

The **Job Assignments** feature helps partners organize and manage responsibilities across projects. Partners can now assign key personnel directly to a job in Pathwave — ensuring each role receives notifications and can easily locate assigned jobs from their personalized job board view.

> **Job Assignments Supported:**
> 
> - Quality Manager
> - Safety Manager
> - Construction Manager
> - Project Manager

---

### **Why It Matters**

Assigning managers directly to jobs promotes clear accountability, reduces miscommunication, and simplifies job tracking. Each assigned user gains:

- Immediate visibility of their responsibilities
- Job-specific notifications
- Personalized filtering and saved job views

4. Choose the appropriate user from the dropdown list.
5. Click **Assign**.
