Duties Handover

Handing duties over to another staff member may be required in order to pass outstanding/uncompleted tasks from one user to another, either temporarily (e.g. for the time of vacation or a business trip) or permanently (e.g. due to promotion or discharge). These functions are invoked via Duties Handover group of menus.
