Hiding assignments of child cases
In our Constellation UI application we do not want to show the assignments of the child cases in the assignment list. I noticed that the logic for this is implemented in the activity pzSetChildCases that is called from pzSetCaseInfo.
When disabling this step I only get the assignments of my case. These are pz rules. They cannot be overriden. Is there another option to implement this requirement?

Hiding the child case assignments on the Parent Case is not a best practice. This might lead to maintenance issues in the long run. For example, if the Parent case is not resolved because there are dependent child cases still in Open status, I hope you can build security requirements if personas cannot access the child cases (ABAC, RBAC).

I understand your concern regarding child cases not visible. We have an overview of the child cases in a tab on the parent case. We want the users to navigate tot the child case and pickup the task from there. On the parent case you cannot submit the last task if there are child cases open.
We still want the same persona to see and access the child case but just not from the assignment list in the parent case. But from our own overview in a tab on the parent case. So I do not think ABAC or RBAC will help.

I got it. Thanks for the clarifications. I was under the impression that there are different personas for parent-child cases.
I don't think there is an configuration to hide the child case assignments from the parent case. It's not recommended to override pz rules from a best practice standpoint.

Thank you for the confirmation. I agree an override of a pz rule is not a best practice. I have been looking at the requirement from a different perspective. If our client does not want to use the parent case assignment list as a vehicle to access the tasks for a persona. Why do we create child cases. Would a structure with related cases not be a better fit. Will be exploring this in the coming days.
