Try passing that from a constant, like call that group in a constant and call that constant here so that there will be no need to even doing the null check , and as the practitioners said this error is not due to the user doesn't belong to that group it is due to the group parameter

Please have a null check on getgroupbyname("P2P_Pay_Invoice_Admin"),

The above mentioned error is telling there is some problem with the group Name. As per my understanding there is no group with name "P2P_Pay_Invoice_Admin" so its throwing that error.

When I use the isusermemberofgroups function and the user is not a member of the group, it doesn't return false, it just errors out. Has anyone experienced this as well?

Details: ERROR:An error occurred while evaluating expression: auReviewer_cdt.reviewer_usr:if(isusermemberofgroup(tp!owner,getgroupbyname("P2P_Pay_Invoice_Admin")),pv!auReviewer_cdt.reviewer_usr,tp!owner) (Expression evaluation error at function 'isusermemberofgroup': Error evaluating function 'isusermemberofgroup' : Invalid null group ID argument.)

ok,

I have read and tested the function isusermemberofgroups and for other project I use it, so probably is better to substitute it with this function

The plug-in recommended by the user in the comment above NO LONGER has that function. I removed it from my plug-in because the out of the box functiondocs.appian.com/.../Scripting_Functions.html function matched the desired behavior so there was no need to keep maintaining something custom. I suggest you use that one instead.

The People Functions has something similar called isusermemberofgroups forum.appian.com/.../summary if you wanted to do the check for multiple groups.
