To transfer record ownership:

Visit the record to be transferred.
In the sidebar, click the arrow next to the Owner.
(Alternatively, click the Actions dropdown.)
Choose the assignment option:
- Claim - This option appears for records that are unassigned or assigned to a team. Use it to take ownership yourself.
- Assign to User- Make another user the owner.
- Assign to Team- Give ownership to a team. Any member of the team can then claim the record.
For Cases and Tasks, you can also add a comment.
The comment becomes part of the case record, and is included in the notification message that goes to the new owner.
