A workload assignment consists of tasks (also called milestones) that the buyer needs to accomplish in the given timeframe. The Workload Administrator allots the requisition lines to the buyer for further processing. Thus, as part of an assignment, a buyer could create a solicitation, publish it, award it and get the award approved. The buyer completes the assigned tasks (milestones) associated with the requisition lines within a given timeframe or does not. The workload assignment is then evaluated by the Workload Administrator as being completed on time or overdue.

For more information on creating and using Workload Assignments, please refer to the Workload Assignments chapter.
