Enable the ability for DARA recommendations to be assigned to individual staff members
It would be useful if DARA recommendations could be assigned to individual staff members in the same way Electronic Resource Activation's can be. This would enable one staff member to distribute DARA tasks to all relevant staff members in a most direct way

Added a related suggestion to better manage assigned DARA tasks.

The June 2021 Release includes the ability to assign recommendations to specific staff users. For more details see here: https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Release_Notes/2021/Alma_2021_Release_Notes?mon=202106BASE and search for "Assigning Recommendations"

Later in Q2 2021, we plan to release functionality to better support this use case. This will allow (optionally) to assign types of recommendations to individual staff members. Stay tuned for updates via the release notes highlights and sneak peek

It would also be useful to assign certain recommendations to roles other than those available in configuration. For example, for the Missing items report, which is presumably meant to prompt staff to replace or withdraw items, the report can only be assigned to those with the Physical Inventory Operator Extended role. Those users can withdraw inventory, but they may not have the budgetary authority to purchase replacement copies.
