Assigned Users Explained
Assigned users have been granted access to a specific case file. Adding team members as assigned users to a case improves collaboration and helps everyone keep abreast of tasks for the group, monitor review status, and communicate with each other regarding case analysis from a centralized location.
When setting up a case that involves other users, it's important to include each team member as an assigned user. Not only will this ensure the case appears on filtered lists for those users, but adding the assigned users will unlock collaborative functions within the following features:
NOTE: Users with administrator or standard permissions can add themselves as assigned users to any case in the account. Limited and Guest Users must be added to a case by an administrator or standard user on the account.

You can easily add or remove yourself as an assigned user on a case from any tab within the case file. Click on the purple "+" button in the upper right-hand corner to join or leave the case:
As an assigned user, your name is linked to that case, meaning any time you filter a list by user, the case will appear as one of your cases. For example, you can filter your case list to view only the cases where you are an assigned user:
