SharePoint Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for SharePoint enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.

I have an issue I need some help with, I have two unrelated lists on a site: Issues List (which I never touched) and Tickets List (amongst multiple more lists there in). I created a workflow and attached it to the "Tickets List", there I check for a particular drop down value: if met then email to the person assigned. **Then if an issue's priority is "High" then send a task for approval to the mgr.

Here is where the issue lies: *Every time the workflow assigns the task (to do item, form etc.) and the task is sent to the users outlook, it shows up as coming from the Issues List which is mind bending because at no point in time I had worked on the Issues List (nor I've referenced to it "consciously"). Upon opening the task it self the user is taken to the wrong list (Issues List) where the task is being stored.

So the question is **How can I stop the workflow from sending the task from the wrong list, and most of all how do I get the workflow to store the task on the tasks list? Any input/guidance is greatly welcome. Please spare my lack of knowledge I'm fairly knew to SharePoint.
