# Enable or disable workflow task assignment delegations

As a Data Entry Workflow manager, you must approve created workflow task assignment delegations. To do so, enable the workflow task assignment delegations.

Enable workflow task assignment delegations that are created by:

- A user.
- You as a Data Entry Workflow manager.

You can also disable enabled workflow task assignment delegations.

If a workflow task assignment is enabled, you cannot edit it.

### Steps

1. Go to **Data entry workflow** > **Design** > **Delegation** > **All workflow assignment delegation**.
2. You can define which workflow task assignment delegations are shown:

In the **View** field, select an option.
  - **All**: All delegations are shown.
  - **Enabled**: Only enabled delegations are shown.
  - **Disabled**: Only disabled delegations are shown.
  - **Active**: Only enabled delegations are shown for which the current date/time is within the period as defined by the Start date/time and End date/time.
  - **Future**: Only delegations with a Start date/time after the current date/time are shown.
  - **Past**: Only delegations with an End date/time before the current date/time are shown.
3. In the list, find and select the desired disabled delegations.
4. Click **Delegation**.
5. Click **To enabled**.
6. Close the page.
