Reclaiming workflow tasks from users for started projects

Once a project is started, you can reclaim accepted tasks from users. The latest assignees (users and groups) are reassigned to the tasks.

About this task

There are two use cases to consider:
  • Let's say Mary and John are assigned to a Translation task. You do not change anything during the Project Planning task. John accepts the task and starts working, but midway you decide to reclaim the task from John. As a result, the Translation task is reassigned to Mary and John.
  • Let's say Mary and John are assigned to a Translation task. During the Project Planning task, you remove Mary and John, and replace them with Allan and Charlie. Allan accepts the task and starts working, but midway you decide to reclaim the task from Allan. As a result, the Translation task is reassigned to Allan and Charlie, the latest assignees.
