(...) 1.) Delegated tasks or tasks received because of substitution rule s are always shown as "Substitution". This confuses people sometimes, because they then might think they will receive all of the delegators tasks. It would be better to show delegated tasks as Delegated. 2.)

So I "recreate" the same validations as form rule s with alerts, which are called when the field value is changed. So I have to implement the same validation twice and the ALERT function isn't build for providing multi lingual messages. Besides the d (...)

(...) After upgrading to most recent version 2021.1.3.205, a simple form rule definded at path parameters stopped working (the rule on the attached screen).
