Displaying Users Assigned to a Task in the Task Details with a Custom Form with a Calculated Field

[JohnMi]

Hello,

I've noticed, surprisingly, that the Task Details Overview doesn't show the assignee's information. To address this, I created a custom field in our task forms, but the only available option is "{assignedToID}". I know how to convert an ID to a name in reports, but how can this be done in the Calculated Fields of custom forms?

Additionally, how can we display multiple assignments in a custom form using a calculated field?

There is an "Assigned To" field in the field library, but it includes an unwanted comment in the instructions area so I cannot use that.

Thanks!

It's quite possible that the reason the Task Details overview doesn't show assignee information, is because it's right there in the upper right corner of that page. All you have to do is click on the circles and it will show you the full list.

To answer your question/s though, probably {assignedTo}.{name} would give you the task owner's name. Other than this, you can't create a calculated field that references a collection of assignees.

That worked! Thank you!
