How can I transfer ownership of my research entities?

You can now transfer the ownership of your research entities in SciVal. If you change positions, leave the organization or you just want to transfer the administration of a shared entity to another person within your organization, the transfer ownership function allows you to do this in SciVal.

You can transfer the ownership to all people with whom you have already shared the entity. After transferring the ownership the previous owner will have viewing rights to the shared entity, the new owner will have full editing rights to the entity.

1. Go to My SciVal and click on the share icon for the shared entity.
2. Click on the tab currently invited/shared with.
