 If you turn on Allocation, you must assign all modules or none, at the moment there is no mix and match of allocated and unallocated modules. As an admin you can assign all user types including yourself and each assigned user will only be able to view records allocated to them (regardless of whether they are an admin). Records unallocated for a particular module will not be presented to any user in that module and must be allocated first. If you turn on Allocation, you must assign all modules or none, at the moment there is no mix and match of allocated and unallocated modules.

 Note: some filters are automatically added, displayed in grey, and cannot be removed for different allocation modules. This is because they are a necessary filter for studies in that module. For example, only records that have been included in Screening will be displayed in the Tagging allocation module, so a "Final Screening Status: Included" will be displayed. Note: some filters are automatically added, displayed in grey, and cannot be removed for different allocation modules.

This means that, when you switch Screening modes, **you will need to re-allocate all studies in the queues for Screening steps**  (such as Abstract reviewer-level screening, Abstract adjudication, etc.).
