That year, he attempted to persuade Captain Montgomery Scott to take the post following his impending retirement (TOS - Strange New Worlds VII short story: "Full Circle") By 2375, Scott did indeed take over for Harriman, but he found the job not to his liking, and often delegated his duties to his assistant, Commander Leland T. Lynch. In August 2375, Scott went on inactive duty, though continued to serve in an advisory capacity, while Lynch took over on an interim basis. (SCE eBook: The Future Begins)
