Help needed - How can I lock down "Assigned To" so only people in group can assign to someone

[Wendy Peterson]

We are having issues of people going into Change Tasks and making a task for Server Engineering and then directly assigning the task to someone in that group. That person may be busy or not even here. They want to lock it down that only someone in the Group can assign it to a person in that group. Any idea's on how I can achieve this? TIA

Hi @Wendy Peterson , 

You can write client script on change task table and check for user's group membership, if user is part of that group then keep that field editable else set readOnly.

g_form.setReadOnly("assignment_group",true);

-Thanks,

I would use an ACL for this because a UI Policies and Client scripts do not apply to the list.
