Hello, I would like to display the task assignee/owner in the tempo task report.

You can save the owner to a process variable, and use the Portal to SAIL function plug-in available on Forum to retrieve the value and use in your Tempo Task report.

Thank you patty.

Patty, on tempo, group names of task_assignee_owner() are switched into [Group:xxxx]. I can't use apply(rule!GETNAME,local!datasubset.data[7].cells.value) as it errs on completed tasks. Do you have any idea on how to solve this issue? Note: the result of task_assignee_owner() for completed tasks seems to be neither empty nor null,...

Try using the rule getgroupbyname() from the "People Function" Plugin forum.appian.com/.../summary

Actually, I manage to get the group name when it is a group and the user name when it is a user but I don't manage to apply any function when task_assignee_owner returns nothing.(sorry if it is not clear)

fabienb - I'm running into an similar issue and I'm curious how you resolved this. I want to display the Assignee field in a task report, but since it can display either a user or group, I'm stumped. Do you know how I could tell if something is a group or a user so I can apply the appropriate functions?

Hello. There is a function runtimetypeof() that can tell you wether it is a group or a user but in the mentionned it could not be applied from what I can recall. Give me few minutes and I will tell you what workaround I used.

Actually, I did not use the task_assignee_owner function inside the report but I saved the value of assignee in a process variable and then used it in the report.

Thank you for the additional info! By using the runtimetypeof() function I was able to build an expression rule to display either the username or groupname.
