Tip: With the exception of Behaviors, you can

into teams.
You can select multiple behaviors for a new
assignment to a delegate or team. When you click
New Assignment, the software creates a separate
assignment for each highlighted behavior. For
changing assignments, you’re stil l restricted to
choosing one behavior at a time. If you choose an
existing assignment and multiple behaviors, the
Reset Assignment button becomes unavailable.
