CRMQuote.Assign Method
The Assign method assigns the quote to a security principal (user or team). (See Remarks.) This method also applies to the parent object and associated objects that have the same owner as the parent object. Therefore when you assign the parent object to a new owner, only the associated objects that have the same owner as the parent object are assigned. In addition, when an object is assigned to a new owner, it is shared with the previous owner with full rights. Either the new owner or the previous owner can remove the relationship or lower the level of privileges the previous owner had on the object.

Remarks
Note The Microsoft CRM application does not support business-object assignment to teams. Therefore, any solutions built by using this method are not supported by the Microsoft CRM application.
If there is an error, SOAP throws an exception and the error message is reported in System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException.Detail.OuterXml.
All IDs passed to the platform are GUIDs wrapped in braces. For example: {6522D89A-A752-4455-A2B0-51494C6957C3}

[C#]
// strServerName should be set with the name of the platform Web server

// virtualDirectory should be set with the name of the Microsoft CRM
// virtual directory on the platform Web server
string virtualDirectory = "mscrmservices";
string strDir = "https://" + strServerName + "/" + virtualDirectory + "/";
// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.BizUser ();

securityPrincipal.Type = Microsoft.CRM.Proxy.SecurityPrincipalType.sptUser;
// Assign the quote to a security principal
quote.Assign(userAuth, strQuoteId, securityPrincipal);
