Outlook task doesn't accept automaticaly

0

I have created an outlook task. I assigned that task to another user, and the user gets an email saying to accept the task instead of just getting it.

There is a problem here:

  • The user needs to accept the task, and I don't want that. I want the task to be automatically accepted.

How do i solve this issue?

Thank you

That is the way Outlook Calendar items and tasks work. Receiver must be able to decline a task or calendar entry.

Isn't there a way to force the user to accept it? – João – 2019-11-11T17:51:05.017

So far as I know (years of use with Outlook), user must accept and cannot be forced as there may be reasons to decline. Management issue really – John – 2019-11-11T17:52:06.327
