Reassignment of user input task - Manager to restrict only within the group

Hi,

I have a user input task assigned to  Approvers group (which has Manager access). The process model security also has Approvers(group) - Manager access.

I want to control the reassignment by users of this group to do within the group of Approvers but not from all users and groups.

I tried the below setting, but still I see "All users and groups" option shown.

The combination you are looking for is not supported.

But, in the past, I created a separate process to reassign in batches, tasks assigned to, or already accepted by, individuals that became unexpectedly unavailable. I think this is a better user experience than having to manually reassign each and every task individually.

Then you need to remove these users from the "Manager" security role on the process model.

Thanks Stefan.

But here the current design is like this because Manager can re-assign any tasks of that model in case any assigned user is not available.
