Reassign task issue

I have found that users can reassign tasks that are not their own to any user that they want.  How does one stop this?  Only an admin should be able to do this type of thing.

Hi @BrianToussaint 

have you control the ACL rules defined for the user?

try to test what ACL is related to the Task object and deny it to users.

My experience is that many customers add user to a Context Manager role and they are surprised that they can do anything 😄

Hi @HelesicPetr 

So the weird thing was that I did it once or twice as a normal user.  So I went in and played with the ACLs.  It stopped it, but when I started back tracking and put all the ACLs back to normal it wouldn't let me anymore.  I did receive a reply from tech support saying that ACLs didn't control this and that it should be controlled by task ownership.

Hi @BrianToussaint 

That could be point. 

If you start to play with ACL, there are used cached rules or what ever it is called, and you need to clear a cache of a user.

It happened to me many times especially if more method servers are running.

So all the time you change the ACL of the user, you need to clear the users cache from the Participant Table in utilities on a site.
