You can manually assign one or more tasks to an individual Agent within a team at any time. If there are multiple jobs waiting for assignment within a queue (task list), the Supervisor can run the Agent Assignment Scheduler within the Setup module. 
Follow the two-step process, assign to Team, then Agent; do not assign to Agent
only using the default tab on the Task Owner dropdown. Use the Team dropdown, then
