Coordinator

The Coordinator field is used to select the current team coordinator for the team. Only members of the team can be selected in this field.
The person who is selected in the Coordinator field will receive all of the team’s assignments (i.e. requests, problems and tasks) that are not assigned to a specific member in his/her inbox. Note, however, that not all teams work with a coordinator whose role it is to distribute the team’s workload among its members. When the Coordinator field is left empty, all of the team’s assignments that are not assigned to a member will be listed in the My Inbox of each member of the team.
