Hi, I want to re-open the task which i have completed (from My Completed task dashlet) and want to reassign the same task to other user (so that goes inside users My To Do Task dashlet).How can i achieve this functionality ?

A completed task can not(or should not) be reassigned as the graph programming avoids this.

As Cheffilet says you cannot re-open a completed task.

However you could create a new assignment with similar values and assign it to someone else.

For advanced workflow you could build the re-assignment steps into your process or have a task with pooled actors which allows one of a pool of people to grab a task and deal with it or put it back uncompleted.

But the bottom line is that a completed task is completed forever.
