STS: Users from Parent Web Do Not Appear in User List of Subwebs
This article was previously published under Q280397
When you attempt to assign a task to someone in a SharePoint team Web site, you cannot do so.
The name does not appear in the
Assigned To list of the new task.
This behavior occurs when you create a subweb under a SharePoint team Web site.
Users from a parent Web do not appear in the user list of a subweb until they have added or edited something in that subweb.
To work around this issue, have the user add an item to the subweb.
When you create a subweb from within SharePoint Site Administration, and then select
Use same permissions as parent Web on the
Create a Subweb page, the user list from the parent Web does not appear in the subweb.
Only the creator of the subweb appears in the
Assign To list of a task that you create or edit in the new subweb.
Users of the parent Web appear in the
Assign To list in the subweb after they add or edit any item in the subweb. For example, after a user creates and then saves a new task in the subweb, his or her user name appears in the
Assigned To list in the
Task pages.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
