Hi all, In my record type I have a related action, this I am triggering from a UI grid column. The related action points to a PM that performs operations and has no UI associated, but as soon as I hit the related action I am getting a white dialogue box, as if there is a UI in the associate PM, and then closes automatically. Usually if there's a UI the dialogue box would make sense, but why is it coming in my case. It could create a kind of confusion if a UI is coming into picture. Is there any way to disable the dialogue box other than selecting its size?

Hi Team, I have a requirement of converting time in seconds to days, hours, minutes and seconds. I am using function intervalds() to do the same but I find when I give time (in seconds) for 30 days then the function does not return me the correct value. My required format is ddd:hh:mm:ss Eg : I tried : intervalds(0,0,2592000) and in response I got : -19::17:02:47.296 (Interval (Day to Second)). I am using appian version 22.2. Can someone help me in fixing the above and suggest me if we have any OOTB functions to do the same. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello team, I would like to ask you for an advice. In my tool there is one User Input Task which is assigned to a group "Processors". The users of this group accept the task and complete it. I set up an "Escalation" to reassign the task back to queue if some of the processors forget to complete it.   My problem is that in some cases, I cant really explain why, the task is not released and its owner remains still the user who accept it. So I created a flow for business administrators who can reassign a task to somebody else from the pool using the "Reassign Task" smart service in Process model. But even if we select the "ICH Processors" as a group to assign the task back, the owner of the task will not change and the task will be not available to accept it. Any advice please on how to resolve this? How to change the owner correctly? Thanks
