Assignments are an important part of workflows. They transfer information and responsibility for task execution to the correct person automatically during a state transition. M-Files offers two types of assignments for use in connection with workflows.
By selecting Assign to User, you can create an assignment that does not result in a separate object. For more information visit https://www.m-files.com/user-guide/latest/eng/assign_to_user.html#assign_to_user

You can also have separate assignments created once the object workflow is moved to a certain state. For more information visit https://www.m-files.com/user-guide/latest/eng/create_separate_assignment_advanced.html#create_separate_assignment_advanced
