- Assignees: For each of your phases, you can add in Assignees. You can add multiple assignees to a phase by adding a semicolon between the two assignees' email addresses.

2. Please re-upload your entire template (not just the items you are editing) with no filters applied.
3. The file will export to .xlsx format and should be re-uploaded in .xlsx. Uploading a .csv could return an error for you.

Once FloQast validates your file you will have the option to view your updated Testing details.
