Who can use iwtaketask and iwsettaskownerandarea

pooleb

Does anyone know the 'rule' for who can use iwsettaskownerandarea and iwtaketask to change task owners? The 'set up': we are allowing certain types of users to be able to update the owner of certain tasks...you know the routine...in case someone leaves the company or goes on vacation etc. So we are providing a GUI to do this (and we don't want all these users to be masters either).

So...to keep from getting the error message that such-and-such does not have permission to change the owner, what is the rule for who can do this? I can't seem to find it documented. The CLT manual just says what the function does, not who can do it. Is it just the owner of the workflow and all masters? If that's the case I guess I'll need to run a small workflow to do this.

The users who are allowed to own a task varies with the type of task. If the task may need to write to the area, then the user must have write access to the area. For a group task, the user must belong to the "shared by" users and groups on the task. For a submit task, the user must be a master or the owner of the workarea.
