SW00552883 I'm told it will be resolved in 19.02.

I was concerned at the time about having to update the group names on user profiles (a custom form), “Assigned to Group” field on tickets, string values in workflow and such. I didn’t want things to break. Amazingly enough, nothing broke, aside from these field accessibility issues. As of now, I’m getting around this issue by adding folks to the old group. Management would like for those old names to be removed as soon as I can find a feasible way of doing so. Another factor that came into play is that when these groups were created eons ago, their group IDs were < 1000. That range is now in the BMC restricted airspace. I felt it best to have the new group IDs within the acceptable range. I was thinking that if I also changed the group IDs for the old groups as well as the names, that would definitely meant having to touch the forms. I hope this makes sense. Thanks!

Management wanted me to change the name of some groups, some majorly and some not so much. So I created the new groups and made them the parent of the respective old group.

However, what I’m seeing is that if a user account is a member of the parent group but not the child group, some elements of certain forms are inaccessible for that user account. I was expecting that parent groups would be able to access things that the child groups can access. Isn’t it supposed to work that way, or am I going to have to touch the forms and fields in Dev Studio and adjust permissions? Thanks!
