Accepting Work
If you are assigned to an activity as part of a Pool resource assignment type, a task appears in your My Tasks table. The task has a status of Potential until one of the resources included in the pool accepts the work.
To accept the task, navigate to the My Tasks or Tasks table. From the right-click actions menu of the assignment, select Accept.
