# Reassigning a Team Booking

> Hand an existing round-robin booking in Cal ID to another qualified teammate, automatically or by name, without cancelling the meeting.

When the host assigned to a round-robin meeting can no longer take it, you can move the booking to another member of the same event without cancelling and rebooking. The time stays fixed; only the host changes.

This page covers reassigning a booking that already exists. To set up the rotation itself, see [Round-robin events](/docs/teams/round-robin).

## Before you start

* The booking has to belong to a **round-robin** team event, where meetings are shared automatically among available members.
* The teammate taking over must already be an assigned host on that event type.
* The meeting time does not move during a reassignment. If the time also needs to change, [reschedule the booking](/docs/bookings/cancel-reschedule) after the handoff.

## Open the reassign dialog

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Bookings">
    Click **Bookings** in the left sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find the team booking">
    Locate the meeting under **Bookings → Upcoming**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the actions menu">
    Click the **three dots (…)** at the right of the booking row.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Reassign">
    Choose **Reassign** from the menu to open the **Reassign round robin host** dialog.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Choose how to reassign

The dialog offers two methods.

| Method                                 | What Cal ID does                                                                                                                                     | Use it when                                                         |
| -------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Round Robin**                        | Scans the remaining assigned members' calendars for that slot and passes the meeting to the next available person, following your round-robin rules. | Any qualified teammate will do and you want the rotation respected. |
| **Manually reassign round robin host** | Opens a **Select team member** search so you choose the person yourself.                                                                             | A specific colleague owns the relationship or has the context.      |

### Automatic redistribution

Select **Round Robin**. Cal ID checks who among the event's other assigned hosts is free at that time and moves the booking to them.

### Manual reassignment

Select **Manually reassign round robin host**, then use the **Select team member** search to pick the teammate who will take over.

</Frame>

You can also add a reason for the reassignment, which travels with the notifications Cal ID sends.

</Frame>

## Complete the handoff

Click the blue **Reassign** button. Cal ID sends the updates straight away:

* The **previous host** is told the slot has been removed from their calendar.
* The **new host** receives the meeting notes, links, and details.
* The **attendee's** calendar updates on its own — no rebooking on their side.

<Note>
  If no other assigned host is free at that time, automatic redistribution has nobody to hand the meeting to. Reassign manually to a specific teammate, or reschedule the booking to a slot that works.
