Another way to play with ..

Assuming the list of numbers* to be assigned is in A1:A10
*or whatever item needs to be assigned

Put in say, E1: =RAND()
Copy down to E10

Put in B1:
=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(SMALL(E:E,ROWS($A$1:A1)),E:E,0))

Copy B1 down to B10

B1:B10 will return a non-repeating randomized shuffle
of the 10 numbers (or items) in A1:A10

Press / tap F9 to recalc / re-generate a fresh selection

Just freeze the results elsewhere
with a copy paste special values ok

Adapt to suit ..
