Please note for a correction that changes in the organizational model
do not have any additional effects on the evaluation of a rule for
agent determination, as it is only evaluated when the work item is
created.
However, changes to the organizational assignment of the task become
effective immediately since they are re-evaluated when the Business
Workplace worklist is compiled.
