Why You May Not Be Able to Share or Assign in Propel Your Business #

Sometimes you may try to share an initiative or assign a roadmap item and find that the person you’re looking for doesn’t appear as an option.


Common Cause #

  • This almost always means the individual is not yet active in the software.
  • Two reasons this can happen:
    1. They have not been added as a user.
    2. They have not set up their account after being invited.

Example – Sharing an Initiative #

  • You go to an initiative, click the three dots, and select Edit.
  • Under the Shared With field, you type a name but no results appear.
  • This means the person is not active in the system.

Example – Assigning a Roadmap Item #

  • Inside a meeting, under the Initiatives section, you attempt to assign a roadmap item.
  • If the person’s name is missing from the list, it indicates the same problem: they’re not active yet.

What to Do Next #

  • Check with your Company Admin or Firm Admin to make sure the person has been invited and activated.
  • If the issue continues, you can log a support ticket through the Propel Your Business support desk for additional help.

Key takeaway: If someone doesn’t show up when sharing initiatives or assigning roadmap items, they aren’t active in the software. Confirm their account setup with your admin before proceeding.
