I have a problem with showing the proper info in a portal report that shows all the active tasks.

Hi,
I have a problem with showing the proper info in a portal report that shows all the active tasks. The problem is when the task is assigned to a group. At that point, the task is not shown to who it's assigned. A have created a rule to solve this issue:

=if(find("Group", tostring(ri!user)) <>0, getdistinctusers(ri!user), ri!user)

This rule works fine when tested as a rule (it expects an array of users or groups, and returns all the distinctive users that are specified + the users that are in the specified groups).

    @bojanb Hi, I have attached a code snippet which you can actually start playing with. It aids you with the capability of querying the tasks where the user is directly part of (assigned to user directly) or indirectly part of(as you know already, when the user is a part of the group, he/she will be assignee when the group is assigned a task) or when the user is assigned the task along with other users or groups. To the best of my knowledge, this resolves your second problem. Please feel free to let us know in case if you have any follow up questions.

    With regards to your first problem, I don't think you can surface the users from a group in the portal report. But let me still explore the possibility mean while.
