Why can I only assign "Unassigned" to "Owned By" field as a Script Based Calculated Value?

Question

Hi

my "Owned By" field is to be fed from a Script Based Calculated Value.

When returning a string with the UUID from "Unassigned" ("_YNh4MOlsEdq4xpiOKg5hvA"), it works perfectly well, the owner of the item changes to unassigned. If I return a string with the UUID from any other users, the item owner does not change.

I am researching my UUID with another script using workItem.getValue(WorkItemAttributes.OWNER); so I am pretty confident the UUID as such is correct.

Anyone with a clue why this isn't working?

Regards

Franca

Franca,

this works for me. I used the script below and it worked immediately. I got the ID from the user profile.

dojo.provide("com.example.ValueProvider");
(function() {
    dojo.declare("com.example.ValueProvider", null, {
    getValue: function(attribute, workItem, configuration) {

        //return workItem.getValue(attribute);
        return "_cc14oFplEeuac-qhIXDu1Q";

    }
});

})();

It's all about the answers!
