# Tips and Tricks: Reallocating Assignments

## When a resource's contract comes to an end, there's no need to go through the hassle of rebuilding the entire project.

Instead of deleting a project assignment from a departing resource and creating it again for a new resource, simply reassign (reallocate) the existing assignment.

You can [reallocate assignment hours](https://support.audere.com/reallocate-an-assignment?hsLang=en) from the **Project: People** or **Project: Phase** view of the Schedule page or resign from the **Edit Assignment** dialog.

From the **Project: People** or **Project: Phase** view:

1. Hover your cursor over a P**erson (1)** or **Role** in the list of resources or tap the row if using a mobile device. The row color changes to indicate the Person or Role affected.![Reallocate 1-1](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Reallocate%201-1.png?width=688&height=417&name=Reallocate%201-1.png)
2. When the floating action buttons appear, select the ![edit button-2](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/edit%20button-2.png?width=21&height=21&name=edit%20button-2.png) **More Actions (2)** button and then select **Reassign (3)**.
3. In the **Select Person (4)** field, select a new **Person (5)** or **Role** from the drop-down list.

From the **Edit Assignment** dialog:

1. Select the open space between **Hours** boxes in the **Assignment Bar (1)** to open the **Edit Assignment** dialog.

2. Select the **Assign To (2)** field and then select a new **Person (3)** or **Role** from the drop-down list.
3. Select **Apply (4)** when complete to save.

**Tip:** Select the ![hide empty rows button-2](https://support.audere.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hide%20empty%20rows%20button-2.png?width=22&height=22&name=hide%20empty%20rows%20button-2.png) **Hide Empty Rows** button to hide any resources without active assignments.
