    In case this is a point of confusion, I'd like to point out that if you edit the assignment field by expression, you will usually need to clear out the prior value or else the expression editor (for whatever reason) will add the new value as an additional option after your original value.  Using this method you should of course be able to assign it to the 2 separate PVs in such a way that it ends up more like Stewart's most recent screenshot in terms of reassignment privs, but assigned to PVs instead of manually-declared groups.

  • Additionally, referring to "so that only administrator can reject / reassign task assigned to the normal group user".  Note the administrator's task will not natively be able to access and reassign the OTHER / normal user's task with the Reassignment Privileges setting - this will only allow them to reassign THEIR administrator task.  To reassign another user's task the administrator group would need at least Manager rights on the process model or process instance and a way to retrieve the normal user's task to access the reassign function (reporting, etc).

    Does the administrator need to work the task also, or are you only giving them a task for the purpose of reassigning the normal user's task?  Just to clarify there..

    Thanks Mike , as you said that was the problem with the Expression editor. Now using your details we are able to achieve the same as in Steward screenshot. this is what we have been trying to achieve.
