Enable Manual Group Reassignment for Custom Forms in Workfront

Description

Allow users to manually update or reassign the Group associated with a custom form in Adobe Workfront after the form has been created.

Why is this feature important to you

As a System Admin, I often collaborate across multiple departments and groups. Custom forms are a key part of our intake and project tracking processes. However, when forms are created by users in one group, they become locked to that group—even if the form is intended for broader use. 

 

Being able to reassign the group would:

  • Improve cross-functional collaboration.
  • Streamline form governance and updates.
  • Ensure forms are managed by the correct stakeholders.

How would you like the feature to work

I’d like to see a “Group” field editable by system admins or users with appropriate permissions. Ideally:

  • The field could be updated in the form settings.
  • A dropdown would allow selection from available groups.
  • A confirmation prompt would warn about access changes or dependencies.
  • Audit logs would track changes for accountability.

This would mirror how other Workfront objects (like projects or templates) can be reassigned or shared across groups.

Current Behavior

Currently, the group is automatically assigned based on the home group of the user who created the form. The only workaround is to recreate the form using a user from the desired group, which is time-consuming and error-prone.
